Awesome! Yes, that will do. I love that it's just mirroring the babel
block as well and I can save my final result back to the block with
=C-c '= or abort. For whatever reason I think I've run into this
before -- it's like the analog of C-c ` (backtick) for table editing.
I just didn't remember.


Thanks!
