Hi Nick,
Many thanks for your input.
The table I was trying was the example in the tutorial shown as follows
(not big) and no hint of a regex!:
| Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4 | Col5 |
|------+------+------+------+------|
| a | a | :='(mapconcat 'identity (delete-dups (list @2$1..@>$1
@2$2..@>$2)) " ") | b | |
| b | a | | | |
| c | d | | | |
#+TBLFM: @2$3='(mapconcat 'identity (delete-dups (list @2$1..@>$1
@2$2..@>$2)) " ")
I'm not sure where you got this: the tutorial's table does not have a
field formula afaict. If you eliminate the field formula, the example
works - just do C-c C-c on the #+TBLFM: line:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
| Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4 | Col5 |
|------+------+---------+------+------|
| a | a | | b | |
| b | a | | | |
| c | d | | | |
#+TBLFM: @2$3='(mapconcat 'identity (delete-dups (list @2$1..@>$1 @2$2..@>$2)) "
")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I don't know why the field formula fails.
The version of emacs is GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, ) of
2013-07-27 on roseapple, modified by Debian
Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef @
/usr/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/)
Hi Guys,
Some definite strangeness that I'd love to get to the bottom of, if only
to preserve my sanity and understanding of how Org-Mode works!
The following is the example given in the excellent Worg tutorial on
using Emacs Lisp in spreadsheet formulas:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-spreadsheet-lisp-formulas.html
| Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4 | Col5 |
|------+------+------+------+------|
| a | a | | d | |
| a | b | | | |
| b | a | | | |
| c | d | | | |
Inserting the following as a field formula in location @2$3:
:='(mapconcat 'identity (delete-dups (list @2$1..@>$1 @2$2..@>$2)) " ")
and doing a C-c or a C-u-C-c C-c generates an 'Invalid regexp: "Regular
expression too big"' error.
I used the formula debug option C-{ to enable formula debugging and got
the following result:
With the debugging formula on, when the debugger asks whether to
continue on the newly entered formula I get the following output and the
error is resolved and formula properly calculated as shown below.
This is the output provided by the formula debugger:

org-category "spreadsheets" face org-table)) #("d" 0 1 (fontified t

Result: a b c d
Format: NONE
Final: a b c d
After The formula was correctly resolved and shows the following result
correctly:

It seems that I can reliably reproduce a bug that I haven't been able to
find on forums and that most other people have difficulty replicating.
If I've done something to my installation of emacs I'd love to find out
what has caused the problem.
Is there a way of determining what could be my issue?
Many thanks for your help!
Ciaran
