Tables in Emacs Org Mode
Friday, May 29th, 2009I run my entire life in Emacs Org Mode. I’ll write up more on that later, but for now, check out this little trick.
You can create tables in Emacs Org Mode by just starting a line with a pipe (|). Then, just add in another pipe when you need to add columns. When you add new lines, it automatically resizes all the columns to the length of the data.
This is incredibly handy when you need to keep a running tab of something in the context of your to-do. (Like, say, if your document server is constantly leaking memory…)

Another little delight with working with Emacs — Aquamacs in my case.
