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.
I think the idea of a ROE pattern is quite clever. Primarily I was thinking of two use cases:
* The table was produced as the output of some simple program/calculation. In this case a ROE pattern will work well. The result after the replacement should probably depend on what table markups that are available, there are some interesting ideas in this thread. * Writing the table on the wiki page without clutter, i.e. the markup should visually look like a table. It's ok if this doesn't allow all kinds of special formatting, e.g. horizontal alingment. regards /Christian -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr
