I also re-read my initial question and your response *does* address my
mis phrased question. To rephrase my question, I have a table
with these values:
| heading col 0 | heading col 1 |
| ------------------ | ----------------- |
| A | B
| C | D
I found the org-table-toggle-coordinate-overlays
which displays an overlay showing the row number:
https://www.evernote.com/l/AOJvD5ty6RRIBYAcSWV-047CKCHT5NIAhl8
I would like to know if there's a way to influence
org-table-toggle-coordinate-overlays
(e.g. some flag like "don't count rows before headings")
Thanks,
--Nate
