Re: [O] org-table-copy-down incrementor
Hi Bastien, I'm late to this party I know, but wanted to confirm all is working well for me too.

I did not notice before but the first commit 7ac468ff5547891503b6b8f5fa03793d79b3bff6 changed SHIFT-RET on the empty field | 2 | | 5 | | | to add a new row instead of only replacing the current field.

Yes it does: SHIFT-RET on the last row of the tables | 2 | | 5 | and | 2 | and | [2014-04-30 Wed] | | [2014-05-07 Wed] | and | [2014-04-30 Wed] | increment as expected. As I see only now the use case | 1.1 | | -0.5 | does not seem easy to increment by -1.6 due to the formatting of the result, so I don't expect it to be implemented. (number-to-string is not enough because of the inaccuracy of the fraction.) (const :tag Don't increment the value when copying a field t))) Wasn't the t meant to be nil? Michael

For me it would be already enough and preferred when the increment would be the same as in the two fields above point. Like in other well known spreadsheet applications. Without new Org custom variables and without the possibility or requirement of providing a table formula: | 2 | | 5 | SHIFT-RET = | 2 | | 5 | | 8 | or | 1.1 | | -0.5 | SHIFT-RET = | 1.1 | | -0.5 | | -2.1 | or | [2014-04-30 Wed] | | [2014-05-07 Wed] | SHIFT-RET = | [2014-04-30 Wed] | | [2014-05-07 Wed] | | [2014-05-14 Wed] | etc. Michael

I added a link to the manual, thanks. I discovered org-table-copy-down and its ability to increment dates. I would like to be able to specify the number to increment, and then ideally increment by that number again. For example lets say I want to create a table of Mondays The idea came up earlier on to let org-table-copy-down increment by using a table formula -- which is my TODO list for Org 8.3.
