Another important feature request is to split cells= .

Example (copying and paste the example above)


Example:
I have the following=A0| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0= 1 | =A0 =A0 =A0 =A01 |
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A02 | two words|
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A03 | =A0 =A0 =A0 =A04 |<= /font>
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A04 | = =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0|

Now I want to split cell =A0@2$2 and thus move the second part to the follo= wing cell below =A0in column 2 down one step.

After:
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A01 | = =A0 =A0 =A0 =A01 |
= | =A0 =A0 =A0 =A02 | =A0 =A0 =A0 two|
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0| =A0 =A0 words|
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A03 | =A0 =A0 = =A0 =A04 |
| =A0 =A0 =A0 =A04 | =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0|
=



I do i= t several times when I put much comments on an entry and the column becomes= much wider.

It is several commands (sometimes with rectangles, some= times not depending on the remaining of the table) .

Is there an easy way to do this?

There are some org-table specific rectangle edit commands that should=
make it easier. Cut the cells with org-table-cut-region, and paste by
org-table-paste-rectangle.

Hope this helps.
