I'd be lazy and just use the :post argument. So something like the
following. I'm pretty sure I once wrote a :post function that took
negative number (to add a final hline), but I couldn't find it...
#+BEGIN_SRC python :post add-hline(tbl=*this*)
return([ ["a"], [1], [2]])
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
|---|
| a |
|---|
| 1 |
| 2 |
#+name: add-hline
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var tbl='((a) (b) (c)) hlines='(0 1)
(loop for hline in
(mapcar* '+ hlines
(number-sequence 0 (length hlines)))
do (setq tbl (append (subseq tbl 0 hline)
'(hline)
(subseq tbl hline))))
tbl
#+END_SRC
Hope it helps,
Rasmus
