I figrued it out. Copy/paste exactly these lines in the snippets tool. You can
bind it to a key as you may know, I bound it to Ctrl-E. So paste it in a new
snippet (keep the original in a safe place), bind to a key, select the text you
want to html-tableize and hit the key binding. In my case it worked.
$<
def addline(line):
return "<tr\>%s</tr\>\n" % line
def addcolumn(item,nb_columns):
if nb_columns != 3:
return "<td colspan='%s'\>%s</td\>" % (3 - nb_columns + 1, item)
return "<td\>%s</td\>" % item
output = "<table\>\n"
for line in """$GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT""".split("\n"):
items = line.strip().split("\t")
columns = ""
for item in items :
columns += addcolumn(item,len(items))
output += addline(columns)
output += "</table\>"
return output>
Here's a screenshit, sorry screenshot :) http://h.dropcanvas.com/521xc/gedit.png
The python support in gedit snippets is very poor when it comes to debugging
because there are traceback printed in the console, that means gedit actually
breaks without even noticing the user about what went wrong (ex. : your snippet
is malformed or has errors). I had to debug it using pdb.set_trace directly
inside its source code to figure out what was wrong in the snippet.
If this doesn't work for you, please let me know.

"Snippets" is a plugin, yes. It's included in the .app for Mac (v. 2.30.2), but
not activated af default.
Open "Tools" in the menu line and click "Manage snippets...". Here you can
organize, add and edit snippets of texts. The feature olså has the ability to
work with Python code inside the snippet content.
I am re-building a 15 years old homepage. The HTML code is handmade over the
years and very varying, buggy etc., så I would like to renew the HTML for the
table structure in an easy way.
Example: On this page: http://www.danacord.dk/frmsets/records/732-r.html I mark
the content of the CD, copy it to the clipboard and paste it into the editing
area in Gedit. cmd-a marks it all again and then I "run" the snippet upon the
text, either using my self-defined hotkey or by pushing ctrl+space and select
my snippet from a list.
The copied text is inserted as clean text without any HTML. The Python-snippet
we are discussing recognizes tabs to separate the columns and adds the
apprpriate HTML-code to it.
