Yes, that separation is essential. I agree. > That's right. OTOH, people will try to stretch it in every conceivable > direction. That's in a way Org's biggest strength (and at the same time > its biggest weakness :) Great truth! I always try to take things to the extreme :-D, and I continue thinking that Org is (among many other things) an excellent 'interface' for LaTeX (maybe the best). But I have to admit that a table with a lot of complexity is a special case when maybe you have to write LaTeX code, and get lost between all those & and backslashes, at least if the goal is the typographic refinement. The greatest power of Org resides in his lightness and in its chameleon versatility, but his worst temptation may be to become in a (poor) LaTeX 'translation'. Best regards, Juan Manuel
