When I draw a box diagram in an example block or a source code block, the rectangles trigger org-src-mode to recognize that as tables. For example, If I org-edit-special on the following:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE +---------+ | | | box | | | +---------+ #+END_EXAMPLE I get a message "Recognizing tables...done" and the inside of the box is painted blue. The reason I am not using colon blocks like: : +---------+ : | | : | box | : | | : +---------+ is because I couldn't find a way to fold them. If I draw a diagram like this (with dot prefix): #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE . +---------+ . | | . | box | . | | . +---------+ #+END_EXAMPLE the dots prevent org-src-mode from recognizing the rectangle as a table, but is there a way to prevent org-src-mode from recognizing tables without resorting to this prefix trick?
