Have been introspecting the possibility of conveniently inserting table
programatically
in elisp and encountered "table.el".
Have constructed this function, but the difficulty centers around
the challenge of inserting text in specific tests.
(defun make-table ()
(interactive)
(table-insert 4 5)
(table-forward-cell)
(table-insert-sequence "icomplt-horz" 1 1 1 'center)
(table-forward-cell 4)
(table-insert-sequence "icomplt-vert" 1 1 1 'center)
(table-release))
It might be that "table.el" was designed under the assumption that the table
would
be edited interactively rather than from ELisp. The lack of info may just
reflect
that nobody has thought about it making tables programatically that also goes
beyond
its utilisation in "org-mode".
I understand that "Org" cooperates with its author Takaaki Ota, perhaps things
could
be extended in a way that makes inserting tables programatically much easier to
work
with.
