GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-03-26 on RELEASE Running on Windows XP Pro org-version 4.67c
I have composed a table in org including integers using C-syntax hexadecimal. | Variable Name | Current | Target.exe locn | Address of | | | | Source | | reference | Delta | |---------------------------+---------+-----------------+------------+--------| | read_thread_func | 0x11450 | 0x11450 | 0x113b8 | | | MainWndProc | 0x18190 | 0x18190 | 0x11284 | | | l_bData | 0x1d1b8 | 0x1d194 | 0x187d8 | 0x24 | I would like to create a formula that causes the difference between two columns in this format to be calculated and displayed (preferably, but not necessarily) in the same C-syntax, in the Delta column. (The 0x24 was calculated by hand in the above excerpt) The file itself is primarily an org file, not a C file, and I would prefer to keep the choice of C-syntax for Calc localized to this particular .org file, or even better, to this particular table. I have tried persuading the embedded calc mode to use the C "language mode" for the table, it seems like there should be a line like % [calc-mode: language-mode: c] or % [calc-mode: calc-language-option: c] or some other thing that could be placed somewhere near the table or in the file to affect how Calc treats the numbers in the table, but I can't seem to figure how to make that happen. I find the Calc documentation of this stuff to be a little confusing, as to which names in the source and/or documentation apply to which context. It appears from the .el source that the settings specific to org-calc (i.e., following a semicolon after the formula are hard-coded to the limited set described in "Formula Syntax for Calc"), not including this setting. 1) Is it possible to do this? 2) If so, how? Thanks for your help. --Joe P.S. The org-mode info file "Feedback node" suggests mailing Carsten Dominik directly for "questions, remarks, or ideas" instead of this mailing list. I assumed this list was a more appropriate target. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
