I'd like to ask one of our Emacsers to try something.

1) Create a table with 2 or more columns and a few lines
2) in the first row, first column, enter the value "1"
3) in the second row, first column, press S-Ret

Expected behavior: the value should be incremented by 1 according to the numerical value (2, 3, ..)

I can not get this to work in noX and TTY, but it does work in emacs24-lucid.

For TTY it is mentioned here: http://orgmode.org/manual/TTY-keys.html
However, C-c C-x c just produces a dialog in mini-buffer and tries to clone.

org-table-copy-increment seems not to do anything else than reporting t and nil.

Thanks in advance!

Works in GUI, not working in TTY neither with S-RET nor with C-c C-x c.

Okay thanks Gekko for trying this, that's what I thought, too.

I'll check if I can use another keycombo for this (though I am not sure which function is responsible, yet)

/closed, thanks!

Ah okay, the expression is

org-table-copy-down

It should be working with C-x @ S Ret, however, it doesn't do it. Nevermind, I rather fill in manually or go over to X for these.
