I'm trying to have my tables extend across the full (\textwidth) of the page. In LaTeX I was using tabular*, specifying a \textwidth for width, and with approp use of @{\extracolsep\fill}} bu am not having any success. Basically, in ConteXT I want odd columns to act as labels and be tight fitting but even cols to be the values an NOT be tight-fitting, within a page-wide table, ie some tight, some not. As well, I' d like not to be explicitly specifying column width.
I saw examples using option=stretch somewhere but am not able to get my use of same happening. As well, I' d like not to be explicitly specifying column width. Could a kind person please point me to an example of this usage.
Thanks.
