OK, I'm answering my own question from October: by shamelessly copying and adapting code from enattab, I managed to get double lines in tables, and I'm almost there. I guess real texnicians would call it a dirty hack, but it does what I want. Could anybody test this code: \starttext \startuniqueMPgraphic{c11} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; path q ; q = llcorner p--ulcorner p ; pair a ; a := point .08 of q ; path r ; r = lrcorner p--urcorner p ; pair b ; b := point .08 of r ; draw b--a--ulcorner p--urcorner p ; draw lrcorner p--llcorner p--a ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c12} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; path q ; q = ulcorner p--urcorner p ; pair a ; a := point .02 of q ; path r ; r = llcorner p--lrcorner p ; pair b ; b := point .02 of r ; path s ; s = lrcorner p--urcorner p ; pair c ; c := point .08 of s ; path t ; t = b--a ; pair d ; d := point .08 of t ; path u ; u = llcorner p--ulcorner p ; pair e ; e := point .08 of u ; draw ulcorner p--urcorner p--c--d--a ; draw b--lrcorner p ; draw e--ulcorner p ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c13} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; path q ; q = llcorner p--ulcorner p ; pair a ; a := point .08 of q ; path r ; r = lrcorner p--urcorner p ; pair b ; b := point .08 of r ; draw ulcorner p--urcorner p--b--a ; draw llcorner p--lrcorner p ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c14} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; path q ; q = llcorner p--ulcorner p ; pair a ; a := point .08 of q ; path r ; r = lrcorner p--urcorner p ; pair b ; b := point .08 of r ; draw ulcorner p--urcorner p--lrcorner p--llcorner p ; draw b--a ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c21} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; draw ulcorner p--llcorner p--lrcorner p ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c22} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; path q ; q = ulcorner p--urcorner p ; pair a ; a := point .02 of q ; path r ; r = llcorner p--lrcorner p ; pair b ; b := point .02 of r ; draw a--b--lrcorner p ; draw llcorner p--ulcorner p ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{c24} path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; draw ulcorner p--llcorner p--lrcorner p--urcorner p ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \defineoverlay[c11][\uniqueMPgraphic{c11}] \defineoverlay[c12][\uniqueMPgraphic{c12}] \defineoverlay[c13][\uniqueMPgraphic{c13}] \defineoverlay[c14][\uniqueMPgraphic{c14}] \defineoverlay[c21][\uniqueMPgraphic{c21}] \defineoverlay[c22][\uniqueMPgraphic{c22}] \defineoverlay[c24][\uniqueMPgraphic{c24}] \bTABLE[width=.25\textwidth,frame=off] \bTR \bTD \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c11,frame=off]{A} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c12,frame=off]{B} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c13,frame=off]{C} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c14,frame=off]{D} \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c21,frame=off]{E} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c22,frame=off]{F} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c21,frame=off]{G} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c24,frame=off]{H} \eTD \eTR \bTR\bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c21,frame=off]{I} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c22,frame=off]{K} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c21,frame=off]{L} \eTD \bTD[align=middle] \framed[width=.25\textwidth,height=4.5ex,background=c24,frame=off]{M} \eTD \eTR \eTABLE \stoptext As you can see, the only problem is that there is a small gap between the rows in the table. Is there a way how this gap can be closed? Thanks for your patience! Thomas On Oct 6, 2004, at 10:22 AM, Thomas A.Schmitz wrote:

Hi all,

quick question: does any of the table environments in ConTeXt (table, tables, TABLE, linetable) provide the possibility to have double lines separate some rows and columns?

A || B | C __________ ---------- D | E | F

Thanks a lot!

Thomas
