Can you make a temporary org-buffer that copies all those tables into
one place, and then join them?

[how to joint column/rows of tables that are in different files (id?)] (was: how to best correct exams (code matlab) using org mode (and tables))

2022-05-10 Thread Uwe Brauer


I think I almost have a working workflow.

What I need is a functionality to join either columns or rows of tables
that are in different files.

Here is what I have in mind for tables that are in the same file


** Columns

#+NAME: T1
| col1 | col2 |
|1 | 2|
#+NAME: T2
| col3 |
| 3|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var t1=T1 t2=T2
(cl-mapcar #'append t1 t2)
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| col1 | col2 | col3 |
|1 |2 |3 |

** Rows
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var t1=T1 t2=T2
(append t1 t2)
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| col1 | col2 |
|1 |2 |
| col3 |  |
|3 |  |



Now the 3rd package orgtbl-aggregate allows me to aggerate column of
tables that are in different files, via an ID generated via  org-id-get-create 
and saved via org-id-update-id-locations
as in 

#+BEGIN: aggregate :table "uwe"  :cols "Level" 
#+END:

Where the table uwe is located in a different file. However it seems
only to work for one table at the time, so if you have 20 tables in 20
files that a bit complicated

Any idea how to append column or rows from different table in different
files in one go?

Thanks

Uwe
