clearing entries in a table (feature request?)
Hi.. is there a way by which I can clear the entries in a table? i.e. preserve the number of rows, columns, formatting etc. but just delete the contents of each cell.. if not, is this in cvs by any chance? Thanks, nirmal

Select everything with the mouse and press 'Del'. Yes, I did try that but it doesn't work here. Probably cos I use Debian-ppc on an iBook which has one delete key that's mapped to backspace and so no real way of getting a delete as in a PC... is there a way by which I can specify the commands in some ui file and have it appear as a menu option in Edit - Tabular? nirmal

M-x delete-forward should works as a substitute to a 'real' delete key press. Awesome! I put this in the ui file too and it all works great! Thanks, nirmal
