Hi everyone,
 a bug report:


Emacs  : GNU Emacs 27.2 (build 1, x86_64-unknown-openbsd, GTK+ Version 2.24.33)
 of 2021-04-20
Package: Org mode version 9.4.6 (release_9.4.6-4-g093c94 @ /home/roklein/.emacs.d/org-mode/lisp/)


When trying to run a table with missing values with ob-gnuplot.el
there's a “:missing value” option.  ob-gnuplot is supposed to put the
“value” into the place of empty cell values before calling on gnuplot.
It doesn't do this currently.  Bi-secting suggests,
“9209aa3c9d456bcfdd9d8cd223367f7cfb6b3231 is the first bad commit”:

--  commit 9209aa3c9d456bcfdd9d8cd223367f7cfb6b3231
--  Author: Nicolas Goaziou <mail@nicolasgoaziou.fr>
--  --  Sun Aug 24 01:31:56 2014 +0200
--
--  org-table: Use "ox.el" internally for radio tables


By my reading:
- in ob-gnuplot.el:org-babel-gnuplot-process-vars :missing variable is
  read, used in
- ob-gnuplot.el:org-babel-gnuplot-quote-tsv-field, called from
- ob-gnuplot.el:org-babel-gnuplot-table-to-data
- used in org-table.el:orgtbl-to-generic (as (part of the) :fmt param)
- which calls org-table--to-generic-cell
- which calle org-table.el:org-table--generic-apply
- which I don't understand

my dotemacs and a sample org file are attached.

When running the code (e.g. C-c C-c on the #+Call: line), temporary
files are created in /tmp/babel-<random>/gnuplot<other-random>.

These files should have "?" (as choosen :missing).  In the current
version there is nothing, so gnuplot uses up the values in the following
columns and the resulting graph is wrong.

Also, I couldn't find this in the manual, but there's a thread “using
gnuplot's "splot" and "every" comma nds on org-mode table” on the
mailing list (2013/09/23 - 3013/09/25) about the :missing feature.

Thanks for any help.

Best regards
Robert

Confirmed

The problem is partially because of the way `org-table--to-generic-cell'
works. It disallows custom processing of empty table cells unless both
:raw and :backend arguments are supplied to `orgtbl-to-generic'.

The attached patch should fix the issue, though it may be more
reasonable to fix orgtbl-to-generic logic.

Nicolas,

Is there a rationale behind bypassing :fmt and :hfmt for empty table
cells in `org-table--to-generic-cell'? In this patch, I have to work
around this using :raw parameter in `orgtbl-to-generic' call. I do not
feel like such workaround should be needed.

Best,
Ihor

Subject: [PATCH] ob-gnuplot: Honour :missing argument

* lisp/ob-gnuplot.el (org-babel-gnuplot-table-to-data): Force applying
`org-babel-gnuplot-quote-tsv-field' to empty table cells when
converting org tables to gnuplot input.  By default,
`orgtbl-to-generic' ignores :fmt for empty table cells.  We need to
set :raw to non-nil AND :backend to non-nil to force custom formatting
of empty table cells.

I'm not sure. I wrote this some years ago. I guess the rationale at that
time was that it didn't feel useful to apply a format to an empty cell.
For example, if you use `:fmt "$%s$"', I assume you wouldn't want to get
"$$" in otherwise empty cells.

Given Nicholas' reply, changing orgtbl-to-generic may not be a good idea
and break other code using orgtbl-to-generic.

Applied as ddee7b617 on bugfix

Also makes sense.

At this point, third-party code is likely to rely on the existing logic,
so I do not see any reason to insist on changing org-table.

To avoid confusion, can we change the docstring explicitly saying that
empty cells are ignored? (see the attached)

Best,
Ihor

If you think it is overall an improvement, feel free to discuss it. I'm
merely pointing out what was the initial intent, not necessarily how it
should be.

Sure. Thanks.

I feel that it would be more consistent, though not necessary an
improvement.  Special formatting for empty cells is probably a rare
need---much more rare compared to skipping them.  I am fine with current
behaviour if it is documented.  It's just that it caught me by surprise
while fixing the current bug report.
