paragraphs in starttables
Hello, while playing around with starttables, footnotes and paragraphs in starttables, I found some problems. Here is the first one, I would like to get a paragraph in 2 columns: \def\SomeText{\dorecurse{20}{hallo }} \starttext \starttables[s1|p(13em)|l|p(13em)|] \VL \SomeText \VL xxx \VL \SomeText \postponefootnotes\footnote{a footnote} \VL \AR \VL \SomeText \VL \TWO{Not ok, since too much distance to the line at the left.}\VL\AR \VL \SomeText \VL xxx \VL \SomeText \VL \AR \stoptables \stoptext \def\SomeText{\dorecurse{2}{hallo }} \starttext \starttables[s1|p(13em)|l|p(13em)|] \VL \SomeText \VL xxx \VL \SomeText \postponefootnotes\footnote{a footnote} \VL \AR \VL \SomeText \VL \TWO\JustLeft{\vtop{\setupinterlinespace\hsize 14em Better, but I need to calculate the hsize, and there are other workarounds for correct vertical spacing. Furthermore, the footnote is lost.\strut \blank[small]}} \VL\AR \VL \SomeText \VL xxx \VL \SomeText \VL \AR \stoptables \stoptext TIA for any help! Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

\postponefootnotes \bTABLE
Yes, \bTABLE is nice too. Unfortunately, I need multi-page tables, table head, table tail, vertical and horizontal lines at the same time. I believe, the only table environment is \starttables, is this correct? Besides, I get the following error with your code: ERROR: Undefined control sequence. --- TeX said --- <argument> \@@tblprefix \c!each \v!each
btw, tabulate is the most clever with paragraphs
Yes, but not multi-page... :( Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

Oh, pardon, that's wrong. Of course, tabulate *can* do multi-page, but not the other features, that I need... Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

actually, tabulate will split quit enicely but does not provide vertical lines; bTABle ... it can split if you say \setupTABLE[split=yes] % splitmethod=a|b you can make head, foot and body sections as well as define alternative headers for the split off parts Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, I'm going to try bTABLE. How can I define header and tail for each page? Is there any reference for this table type, I only found enattab.pdf with some examples. Here is some code, that I tried, but without success: \starttext \bTABLE[split=yes,splitmethod=a] % splitmethod=b gives an error \bTABLEhead \bTR \bTD top of the page \eTD \eTR \eTABLEhead \bTABLEfoot \bTR \bTD bottom of the page \eTD \eTR \eTABLEfoot \bTABLEnext \bTR \bTD next one \eTD \eTR \eTABLEnext \bTABLEbody \dorecurse{50}{\bTR \bTD the body \eTD \eTR} \eTABLEbody \eTABLE \stoptext TIA for any help.

split=repeat
Hello Hans, thank you, this enables repetition of the heads. Unfortunately, the footer does not get repeated. Here a minimal example: \starttext \bTABLE[split=repeat] \bTABLEhead \bTR \bTD top of the page \eTD \eTR \eTABLEhead \bTABLEfoot \bTR \bTD bottom of the page \eTD \eTR \eTABLEfoot \bTABLEbody \dorecurse{150}{\bTR \bTD the body \eTD \eTR} \eTABLEbody \eTABLE \stoptext Could you help again?
