How can this be harder than creating table with Word? Word always gets in the way. Word appears to be easier but down the road, it always end up as a painful process.
For me just the benefit of being mergable and delegating styling at the end of the tool chain is just plain great.

Edit: rendering issues!
- swah 14y agoWell, add a last row with the first column larger than the previous rows, assume people don't know about column-mode editing, and you can imagine what they are doing to align... I think I'll just "preprocess" the file, looking for something like !csvtable(filename.csv).
- swah 14y ago--- End of the story --- Wrote the script (it worked), but some specific complex features from Word still were missed ("how do I do a reference to a picture?") and couldn't be easily supported by pandoc or this script. Though for a brief time of going full-mode procrastinator and writing another markup language... Then I had to admit the whole thing wasn't really working and now recommend we move back to Microsoft Word because it's easier. A day of Total fail, and procrastination, and making everyone install MikTex, pandoc and Python. I hope I don't regret for suggesting we use Git...
