Hi,

I don't manage to use the 'org-table-recalculate-buffer-tables' function within
org-mode (version 7.8.03). It just doesn't show up when I do M-x

In fact, if I want to use it I have to apply the following patch: 

Modified   lisp/org.el
diff --git a/lisp/org.el b/lisp/org.el
index 3b06347..0bbb119 100644
--- a/lisp/org.el
+++ b/lisp/org.el

    org-table-rotate-recalc-marks org-table-sort-lines org-table-sum

    org-table-toggle-formula-debugger org-table-wrap-region


Is there something I am doing wrong ?

best,
                                          aitor

This is a general problem with autoloads in emacs and there will be
differing opinions on how far org (or whatever other package you are
trying to use) should go in order to solve it.

In my opinion, org just has to provide enough autoloads/requires/etc to
satisfy whatever dependencies *it* has, in order to initialize itself
fully. From that point on, any requirements *you* have are best
addressed by you in your environment.  You can do that by adding
something like this to your .emacs:

 (autoload "org-table" 'org-table-recalculate-buffer-tables)

or

 (require 'org-table)

The first one is quicker during initialization and pays the penalty to
load the file the first time that you use the function. The second pays
the penalty up front, but if you know you are going to use a bunch of
table function in every emacs instance you start, it might make more
sense since you don't have to provide individual autoloads. Take your
pick.

Either way, the function will be there when *you* need it.
