Re: pb with tables

[Thierry Volpiatto]

Hello and happy new year to you and all,
I tried your big table with table-widen-column and it work fine
with this setting in .emacs:

(setq max-lisp-eval-depth '40000)
(setq max-specpdl-size '100000)                                           

Without that settings it fail
Note you can do table-widen-column with C-> and narrow with C-<
