# Text Tables
[![version][version-badge]][CHANGELOG]
[![license][license-badge]][LICENSE]
[](https://travis-ci.org/rpeshkov/vscode-text-tables)
VSCode extension that brings the power of Emacs table editing.
## Features
- Tables reformat
- Easy table cells navigation
- Support for [org](https://orgmode.org/manual/Built_002din-table-editor.html#Built_002din-table-editor) and [markdown](https://help.github.com/articles/organizing-information-with-tables/) tables
## Activation
Extension is automatically activated when you open markdown or org file. If you want to use this extension in any other file, just trigger `Text Tables: Enable` command in command pallete.
## Commands
Extension provides several commands that are available in the Command Palette:
- `Text Tables: Enable` - enable extension.
- `Text Tables: Create table` - create new table in cursor position.
- `Text Tables: Format under cursor` - reformat the table under cursor.
- `Text Tables: Enter table mode` - enter [table mode](#table-mode).
- `Text Tables: Exit table mode` - exit [table mode](#table-mode).
- `Text Tables: Go to next cell` - switch to next cell in current table.
- `Text Tables: Go to previous cell` - switch to previous cell in current table.
- `Text Tables: Clear cell` - clear cell under cursor.
You can access all of the above commands from the command pallete (Ctrl+Shift+p or Cmd+Shift+p)
## Table mode
Table mode is the mode where some of the default keybindings have another action assigned.
To enter table mode you may execute command `Text Tables: Enter table mode` from command palette or press Ctrl+q Ctrl+q shortcut to toggle mode. To control whether you're in table mode or not, see the icon in the status bar of Visual Studio Code:
When in table mode, Tab and Shift+Tab keybindings will navigate next/previous cell accordingly.
## Keybindings
- Ctrl+q f - format table under cursor.
- Ctrl+q space - clear cell under cursor.
- Ctrl+q Ctrl+q - toggle table mode.
### In table mode
- Tab - navigate to the next cell in table.
- Shift+Tab - navigate to the previous cell in table.
### Custom keybindings
Extension introduces additional `tableMode` when-clause that you may use to define your own keybindings when in table mode.
Sample keybinding:
```json
{
"key": "tab",
"command": "text-tables.gotoNextCell",
"when": "tableMode"
}
```
## Settings
This extension introduces some settings that you may setup in your user settings or workspace settings.
Available settings:
- `text-tables.mode` - sets the type of tables. Valid values are: `org` and `markdown`.
- `text-tables.showStatus` - controls whether to show or not status item for table mode.
## Contribution
All contributions are welcome.
If you found a bug or want to propose new feature for the extension, feel free to create an issue.
