I know that Table Support is penciled for 1.2, and the reason for this
is that it's going to require a major rewrite of the display engine and
file specification, what I'd

valuable to the developer than just trying it, seeing the lack of table
support and going over to staroffice or openoffice without saying anything.
I fully understand and accept the open source paradigm

Of course political comments are inappropriate for a software
list. OTOH, it was in a sig file, and AFAIK the general
netiquette consensus is that sigs don't need to be on topic, if

I have to agree. As a fellow user, I think it behooves us to comment on things we'd
like to see. I just didn't post about it because I saw that it was the #1 voted

table support, but for me the need
