Subject: a new MyWay: really simple way to create tables
Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2006 11:09:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6faad9f00607260209u71c549f7o4d00380b12e8b79b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

There's a new tiny piece of documentation about how to create simple
tables in a simple way using comma/space/tab-separated values. For
example, you can copy-paste some data from Excell and use it directly
without having to add all those \NC or \eTD\bTD inbetween. You can
also use '&' as a separator and imitate LaTeX way of creating tables.

Comments & feedback wellcome.

Mojca

Just as a warning: There are two bugs left: utf-8 handling (if you
don't need TeX commands in the data, you can circumvent that by using
quotechar=whatever) and the last cell in the row may not be empty (you
can probably put a \strut there if necessary).

(Two other bugs were fixed in Taco's version, but I didn't check if it
is already part of the new distribution or not.)
