emacs-table - Table editing utility for Emacs
- Description:
This package provides text based table creation and editing
feature. With this package Emacsen is capable of editing tables that
are embedded inside a text document, the feature similar to the ones
seen in modern WYSIWYG word processors. A table is a rectangular text
area consisting from a surrounding frame and content inside the
frame. The content is usually subdivided into multiple rectangular
cells. Once a table is recognized, editing operation inside a table
cell is confined into that specific cell's rectangular area. This
means that typing and deleting characters inside a cell do not affect
any outside text but introduces appropriate formatting only to the
sell contents. If necessary for accomodating added text in the cell,
the cell automatically grows vertically and/or horizontally. The
package uses no major mode nor minor mode for its implementation
because the subject text is localized within a buffer. Therefore the
special behaviors inside a table cells are implemented by using
local-map text property instead of buffer wide mode-map. Also some
commonly used functions are advised so that they act specially inside
a table cell.
