Well, maybe it will be possible for Hans to include support for the missing features in a future release. To sum it up once again, what I am missing: - control over column and row spacing - material before/after a cell, e.g. \setupTABLE[row][first][before=bla] - command hooks like \setupTABLE[1][3][hook=\dowithentry]
I'm not sure what hooks are! I assume the before could be something like \blankspace?
Hook means that the table cell contents are passed to the specified command as an argument. You could use \uppercased for example to capitalize an entry. And indeed, I was thinking of controlling horizontal spacing by saying something like before=\hskip1em. I really do hope that natural tables will be further developed, since these are the only things I can see that are available only using the older mechanisms. And natural tables can do so many additional cool things that I don't want to use anything else. -- Eckhart
