After more reading, this seems pretty doable through the 'p{width}'  
alignment option which seems to work through #+ATTR_LaTeX to control  
automatic wrapping in a cell. My remaining question is whether or  
not it's possible to enable tabular* instead of the default  
environment as then I could limit both columns and determine table  
widths. I don't know that tabular seems to have this option?


After git pull, you can do

(setq org-export-latex-tabular-environment "tabular*")

Formatting inside table.el cells does not work because this is a

different export mechanism.

[Orgmode] Org+table.el = mutli line cells?

2010-07-01 Thread John Hendy
Hi,


I export to variable page widths and would like to be able to specify a
limit on my tables which seem to always run on as long as they need to
without regard for any margins or borders. I found a post here where a user
asked the question I was looking for:
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg22353.html

So... table.el (as I have since found during fiddling) does create
multi-line cells, which is awesome.

I can't find *any* documentation for it, though?? I am just looking for
[hopefully] basic/easy things like:

- bold a cell (*word* doesn't seem to work in table.el tables)
- limit the overall width of the table

Thanks hopefully this is not an idiotic question...
