Hello John,

I also have an issue with l= ong tables due to 'longtables' sometimes unnecessarily split small = tables (depending where you insert). So, while we don't have a better o= ption how about if pandoc provide an option to use standard tabular instead= of the default longtables?

=C2=A0 It occurred to me that what I had thought of previously may not work= :
=C2=A0 modifying the LaTeX template to not use `longtable`, but another
=C2=A0 package instead and get classoption `twocolumn` to work.
=C2=A0 This may be because the LaTeX=C2=A0 "micro code" (my name = for it) for tables
=C2=A0 may not work when simply loading a different table package. Is this<= br> =C2=A0 assumption correct?

 Correct, use of longtable is hard coded.=C2=A0 This is quite
unfortunate, and I've long been wanting a better alternative
that will work with 2-column text but also break across
pages when needed.=C2=A0 Haven't found one yet.

Failing that, it may be worth having an option for regular
tables.

=C2=A0 Do I indeed have to resort into writing my own raw LaTeX code if I w= ant
=C2=A0 tables in two-column output?

 It's probably possible to redefine the longtable environment
to something else in your preamble.
