Hi,
Row formulas are great! I've missed this, but learned to work around
it, since I I just assumed that if you hadn't already done it, it was
not a reasonable thing to ask for.
Testing... So now we can simply do e.g.:
#+CAPTION: A multiplication table
| | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
|----+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+----|
| 1 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 3 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 4 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 5 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 6 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 7 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 8 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 9 | | | | | | | | | | |
| 10 | | | | | | | | | | |
#+TBLFM: @2$2..@11$11=@1*$1
C-c C-c...and hey presto:
#+CAPTION: A multiplication table
| | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
|----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+-----|
| 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
| 2 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 |
| 3 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 | 27 | 30 |
| 4 | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 | 28 | 32 | 36 | 40 |
| 5 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 | 50 |
| 6 | 6 | 12 | 18 | 24 | 30 | 36 | 42 | 48 | 54 | 60 |
| 7 | 7 | 14 | 21 | 28 | 35 | 42 | 49 | 56 | 63 | 70 |
| 8 | 8 | 16 | 24 | 32 | 40 | 48 | 56 | 64 | 72 | 80 |
| 9 | 9 | 18 | 27 | 36 | 45 | 54 | 63 | 72 | 81 | 90 |
| 10 | 10 | 20 | 30 | 40 | 50 | 60 | 70 | 80 | 90 | 100 |
#+TBLFM: @2$2..@11$11=@1*$1

Hi everyone,
A frequently requested feature for tables has been to
be able to define row formulas in a way similar to column
formulas. The patch below allows things like
@3=
@2$2..@5$7=
@I$2..@II$4=
as the left hand side for table formulas in order to
write a formula that is valid for an entire column or
for a rectangular section in a table.
Note that in contrast to column formulas, @3= will not
automatically skip a "header column" or field formulas in the
same row. In fact, making both a range formula and a field
point to the same field is forbidden and throws an error.
So to have a formula apply to all but the first column, use
something like this:
@3$2..@3$8=....
Testing is welcome, but I am confident that this works
pretty well.
Bastien, please let me know if you want to have this integrated
before the release, then I will do so.
