RE: [Orgmode] From formatted to table

[Jonathan Arkell]

I do a macros for this

Put the point on the first word of the table
Record Macro
Search for " "
Insert "|"
Tab (next column)
Tab (first column next row
Stop Recording.

Then just C-x e (run macro) until the job is done.   If you know how many lines 
are on the table, you can use a prefix argument with C-x e.

Subject: [Orgmode] From formatted to table

I have for example a table where

| one thing     | dsjfls   |
| two things    | dslkjfls |
| three abc dej | dsf      |

And I would like to get

| one   | thing   | dsjfls   |
| two   | things  | dslkjfls |
| three | abc dej | dsf      |

I tried some simple substitutions but substituting all the spaces in
the region selected will cause problems elsewhere.  I would need to
substitute " " only in one column, is that possible?
