Following a hint by Bernt Hansen, I have now changed org-table-sum to (format "%s" res) until I'll be able to use the corrected version Carsten Dominik uploaded to the git repository (which I am not sure how to access).
Even so, org-table-sum at times shows a strange behaviour. When I try to sum up the following table: | 12130.68 | | -1444.19 | | -12744.90 | | -186.00 | | 7000.00 | | -7056.00 | | -335.58 | | -277.00 | I get -2912.9899999999993 (-2912.99 being the exact result). This is something I'd expect when square roots or logarithms are implied, but with such a simple addition and subtraction of decimal numbers I'd be inclined to call it a bug. Is there a way to improve org-mode in this respect?
