Hi Joris,

I wrote a scheme function to import csv data and typeset them into a 
TeXmacs table (the code is at https://github.com/pireddag/csvTable) to 
answer a question on the forum (on forum.texmacs.cn - the link is 
http://forum.texmacs.cn/t/how-to-import-a-table-from-a-csv-file-to-texmacs/109/3). 
In that code, the table is not formatted.

I have written a few more lines of code to give the possibility of 
formatting it (still have to place them on GitHub); but this is yet not 
enough, because one might want to format the text in individual cells 
(for example make text bold in first column and first row). I could add 
a function for formatting text, but to me placing the table inside 
TeXmacs as "TeXmacs code" seems a good idea too.

By the way I did not yet learn how to package the functions I write as 
"proper TeXmacs plugins", like you suggested me (when I posted the code 
for plotting functions), so I am setting things up as package + Scheme 
functions and instructions on where to place them. But I intend to also 
learn that.


Giovanni
