Dye" <t...@tsdye.com> writes:Hi Eric,A syntax like this, with a width attribute, seems most like Org- modeto me: #+ATTR_LaTeX table* tabularx width=\textwidth align=llXrl If that isn't a reasonable possibility, then, yes, the square bracketsshould be changed. These represent optional arguments in LaTeX. The width argument is required by tabularx and tabulary, not optional, soit looks like an error from a LaTeX point of view. Changing the square brackets to curly brackets in this case would have the advantage of looking a lot like the underlying LaTeX.
