I have always run Emacs full screen and never set any margins, so the text goes
from one side of my screen to the other. (It's not a big screen.) Today I'm
trying out narrowing how text is displayed by setting left-margin-width and
right-margin-width, so there's blank space on either side. It looks good for
most things, and helps readability.
But for tables it can be a problem because sometimes I have a table that i want
as wide as possible. Is there a way to have tables fit inside the margin-width
settings until they get too wide, then expand out? That way a small table isn't
flush left, but a big one is.
Or perhaps there is a way to set Org tables to have margin-widths of 0, so it
would be: narrowed paragraph, narrowed paragraph, table flush left, narrowed
paragraph.
Has anyone here configured something like this? If there's a hook to use it's
beyond what I can hack. Any related tips or configurations would be welcome too.
Thanks,
Bill
