I like org-mode tables and often use them with complex lisp
formulas. Editing them is a bit of a PITA though despite the
`*Edit Formulas* buffer. Both the top menu and the online docs
suggest TAB (org-table-fedit-lisp-indent) to make it instantly
more comfortable, but it does not work for most of my
formulas. An example one looks like
....
Confirmed.
If I open up an Org buffer and execute this:
#+begin_src elisp
(progn
(insert "||")
(org-table-edit-formulas)
(set-fill-column 30)
(insert "$2='(apply '+ (seq-mapn (lambda (foo) (if (equal foo
\"bar\") 1 0)) '(@I..@II)));E"))
#+end_src
Then pressing tab a bunch will indent and un-indent the code.
Prepending "@>>" to the beginning of the buffer makes tab only
jump to the beginning of line, no indenting happens anymore.
I believe the regexp in org-table-fedit-lisp-indent is too
restrictive and does not allow for the `>` character in cell
addressing. When I replace `@>>$2` with just `$2`, it suddenly
works.
Am I right that the behavior is unexpected and the regexp should
be fixed? Is so, can somebody do it?
Yes you are correct on every account. Taking a close look at the
regex shows that this issue will also occur with ranges
(ex. @1..5).
Someone really should go through org-table.el at some point and
factor all these regex's. I have a feeling we have similar
oversights in other parts of the code :/
Since I'm not going to refactor everything, I'll just quickly
patch this specific issue we're having.
Fixed, as commit 597510452
Thank you very much for your bug report! You've help make Org a
little bit better :)
