Hello,
Please find here a patch to support the tabularx table environment when used
in conjunction with the ltablex LaTeX package.
ltablex combines the advantages of longtable and tabularx packages: it enables
splitting of table across pages, and have fixed-width tables with
auto-adjusted columns.
Like longtable, it does not require a float table environment around.
I added a ltablex environment name which will be exported as a tabularx LaTeX
environment without a table float environment (this is the exact same behavior
as for longtable).
Usage is the same as tabularx (except that you use ltablex as :environment
name in the ATTR_LATEX specification):
- you need to specify a :width attribute, and
- an :align attribute.
In this case, like for longtable, the :float attribute is also ignored.
Best regards,
Francesco
* ox-latex.el (org-latex--org-table): Add support for `ltablex'.
