Passing a table to org-babel shell script

[Matthias Teege <matthias-omd@mteege.de>]

Hello,

I try to use a org-mode table as input to an shell script. It works, if
I use a Table with one column.

#+tblname: sec
| Hello World |

#+begin_src sh :var table=sec
cat <<EOF
$table
EOF
#+end_src

#+results:
: [[Hello World]]

But if I use more then one column, If got an error:

#+tblname: sec
| Hello | World |

#+begin_src sh :var table=sec
cat <<EOF
$table
EOF
#+end_src

#+results:
| sh: Zeile 1: World]]: command not found. |

It looks like, then Shell interprets the seperator "|" as pipe.

How do I use a multicolumn table as input for a shell script?

Many thanks
Matthias
