This reminds me of a proposal I made in 2020 on this very matter: <https://list.orgmode.org/87k0v361x9....@gmail.com>. I won’t re-hash it here, but if I am to apply that proposed syntax to the example table it would look like this: ┌──── │ |---- |||||||| Sales | │ | Region |-------------+-----------+-----------+-----------| │ | || Q1 || Q2 || Q3 || Q4 | │ | | foo | bar | foo | bar | foo | bar | foo | bar | │ |--------+-------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----| │ | North | 350 | 46 | 253 | 34 | 234 | 42 | 382 | 68 | │ | South | 462 | 84 | 511 | 78 | 435 | 45 | 534 | 89 | └──── All the best, Timothy -- Timothy (‘tecosaur’/‘TEC’), Org mode contributor.
