Subject: How to export table from a src block?
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2016 15:10:47 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.02.1603281502001.13165@shell.miskatonic.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 574 bytes --]

I have a big table (with #+NAME: mytable).  I can export it to a CSV file by 
hand by having the point somewhere in the table and running

M-x org-table-export

but how could I do this from a source block?  I've got one line so far, but how 
would I get it to be in the table when it runs?  There's nothing else in this 
file, just a table and then this source block.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-table-export "/tmp/mytable.csv" "orgtbl-to-csv")
#+END_SRC

Any help appreciated!
