Hi Francesco,
Thanks for bringing this up. I'm thinking that a more aggressive
version of your patch should be applied here. It seems that org-babel
should not change the values of tables which pass through it. I'm
leaning towards applying the following lines of your patch
- '(:fmt (lambda (cell) (format "%S" cell)))) "\n"))
+ '(:fmt (lambda (cell) (format outputformat cell)))) "\n"))
That change doesn't seem to break any of our unit tests.
Can anyone think of a reason not to make this change?
Thanks -- Eric
