Hi everyone, I noticed a problem which on my configuration is repeatable
so I guess is a bug.

- go on a table
- press C-c ' to edit the formulas
- start to write @+..

It gets stuck and not even C-g can quit it..
This both on linux and OSx 10.6 with orgmode 6.33trans.

By the way I have a table like this

   ID PY   RB   C   HS         RESULT   SUBMITTED  
  -------+----+---+----+--------------+-----------
                                                   
    1   [X]             [X]          233168   Y          
    2   [X]             [X]         4613732   Y          
    3                 [X]            6857   Y            
    4   [X]             [X]          906609   Y          

In short checks if a file is there and otherwise creates a link that
executes the visit of that file.

And the [X] are generated by an elisp function like:

  (defun check_file (fname)
    (interactive)
    (if
        (file-exists-p fname)
        (concat "[[file:" fname "][X]]")
      ;; Otherwise create a link for a new file
      (concat "[[elisp:(find-file \"" fname "\")][_]]"))
    )


Now I would like to take directly the extension needed from the header
cell, and use the same formula for all the cells in the rectangle..
Is that a good idea?

The code I think could stay in the same file and evaluate it somehow
with the :session stuff (so finally I try it).
What do you think?

??? What is the formula?  I guess you exported to ASCII
for posting, and that made a formula disappear?
I cannot see hat you mean?

Yes I'm sorry the table was too big and screwed up so I didn't copy the formulas.
Anyway it's everything here
http://github.com/AndreaCrotti/my-project-euler/blob/master/euler.org

For the "bug" just go over the table
- press C-c '
- start typing a new formula with @+
after that emacs hangs and not even C-g restores it...

I now would like to use only one formula in the whole rectangular area and 
take the extension from the first header of the column.

I cannot reproduce this with Emacs 23.1.1 and org-6.33trans
release_6.33f.30.g011f.
If Emacs hangs completely it might be a bug in the Emacs core rather
then org-mode.

@1

so your full formula would look like:

'(check_file (concat "prob_" A& "." (downcase @1)))

HTH

I don't know what's the problem but it does it on both
osx and linux with emacs 23.1.50...

Ok thanks a lot, but I'm not able to define it over many columns..
I tried with
C&..F& =
but it doesn't keep the formula, is that wrong?

Unfortunately we do not have a way to define row
formulas.....  You need to copy and page the formula, like
in a normal speadsheet....

Ok no problem, but what is then
$P..$Q?
If I name the columns and apply a formula to this don't I stil obtain
what I wanted?

And another thing if I insert invalid formulas in the formula editor
why do they just get droppepd without even a warning of the mistake?

I wrote them a few times before understanding they were wrong..

Anyway it's *MUCH MORE* than a normal spreadsheet!
