Hmmm... The word "trivial" was definitely an optimistic approach. Anyway, after some headbanging it's working. You can see it at [[Cookbook/Text2Tbl]]. This is going to be most useful in 2 situations as I forsee: * for people who would like to compose their tables using some column-divider other than || (i.e. put multiple spaces to line up your columns visually or separate your columns with a semi-colon or something) * for data which is already structured but not in a wiki-table and you want to convert it to a wiki table (i.e., CSV or similar) Do note that this is NOT markup. This provides ReplaceOnEdit patterns which actually alter your markup. -Peter _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
