Was not getting the results I expected from #+attr_latex, so I created
a simplified table to test:

#+begin_src org

Centered (will be sent to LaTeX as =\begin{tabular}{cc}=:

#+attr_latex: align=cc
| test           | test |
| test of longer | test |

Left aligned (will be sent to LaTeX as =\begin{tabular}{ll}=:

#+attr_latex: align = cc
| test           | test |
| test of longer | test |

#+end_src

If there's reason for this, I can change my habits. I guess from
various tidy programming habits, I'm just in the practice of
separating equal signs with surrounding white space for easier
readability. For what it's worth, these two behave identically:

#+attr_latex: width=5cm
#+attr_latex: width = 5cm

I'm not sure why the tabular align argument is behaving differently.


Thanks for any feedback,
john
