Subject: Wishlist: allow range of table elements to be filled by sbe
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2011 09:22:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALPHr6wq9F4J_=92KwaRXhTrec625Wts=c4neckNrPD314xq5Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
I'd like to use a babel code block to fill a table with values. The
sbe elisp function looks like the right thing for this task, but it
appears that the result of the code block always goes into a single
cell of a table. I can specify ranges of values, but then the entire
output is placed into each of the specified cells.
Here is how I imagine things should work:
#+srcname: shcode
#+begin_src sh :exports output table silent
echo "1 2 3"
#+end_src
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
#+TBLFM: $1..$3='(sbe shcode)
Note that this is *NOT* real output from the code block in the current
version of org-mode, it's what I want it to be. There are two things
that cause this to break at the moment:
- The range $1..$3 doesn't work, I have to prepend a row specifier as
in @<$1..@>$3 or suchlike, which is rather counterintuitive but
seems to work.
- The output "1 2 3" are not separated into the various cells but all
placed into each cell.
Or am I doing something wrong here?
András
