Copying Table from Numbers into a Wiki
Quick and Dirty in the IRB
I want to convert a table from Numbers into a Wiki:
When copying cells from Numbers, you get a tab-separated value format.
aaa bbb ccc
111 222 333
And the table syntax in the Wiki looks like this:
|aaa|bbb|ccc|
|111|222|333|
Paste ‘em Into IRB
So, I fired up IRB, copied the table from Numbers and pasted it through the use of pbpaste command.
Process ‘em
Then I split them by line.
Looks good so far. Go ahead and turn each line into the Wiki syntax.
Copy ‘em!
Looks great. Let’s copy it by piping the result into pbcopy.
It’s in my pasteboard now. I can now copy into the wiki.
