I keep perl regexps in a table, and some of them start with "(". I'd like these to be left alone (returned unmodified as a string).
(info "(org)var") doesn't mention special processing of table cells, but the doc of org-babel-read says: Convert the string value of CELL to a number if appropriate. Otherwise if cell looks like lisp (meaning it starts with a "(" or a "'") then read it as lisp, otherwise return it unmodified as a string. So it seems to me that this special behavior of org-babel-read should be documented in info, and controllable by a user option. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
