Thanks Will.
Ive converted your code to python (attached).
I find it works in org 8 but not in 6.33 -- the default for emacs on debian.
Is it easy to make it work for earlier org also??

Reason: This question was asked on the python list: thread starting
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2013-July/653164.html
And so it would be good to have an example that works mostly out of the box

Ok Ive managed to hack up something:  The attached works in org 6.33 and
8.0.7
Just one small help needed:
How to split the very long line

#+ORGTBL SEND mytable...

into multiple lines??
