OK Hans, I see that, thanks a lot! But it still means I have to tag the 
cells/rows? As always, I'm playing with xml and Lua and am trying to 
write some universal code that allows me to try out different table 
mechanisms. Just to explain (don't spend time on this, I'm just playing 
around): I collect my table settings like this:


\startsetups section_table
\setupframedtablecolumn [1] [width=0.7cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE [column] [1] [width=0.7cm,align=left]
\stopsetups

In my Lua file, I start tables like this:

starttable()
startrow()
startcell() etc.

and can switch from one mechanism to another by having these aliases:

starttable = context.startframedtable
starttable = context.bTABLE
starttable  = context.startembeddedxtable

and commenting out the mechanisms that I don't need. But it looks like 
the xtable needs additional arguments to work...


Thanks, and all best

Thomas

how would this translate into \setupxtable?

Re: [NTG-context] synctex file is not compressed

The synctex file works, that is not my problem. But arara creates by
default synctex.gz files and my editor gets confused if both
variants are used. So I was trying to unify the synctex file types
and wondered why it (no longer?) worked with context.

I can find a way around the problem.

\starttext

\stopitem
\startitem

\stopitemize

I think this isn't documented in the wiki and should be added.

Re: [NTG-context] Question about text offset

Dear list,

I was wondering, why is the text in the main text block offset by .25\exheight
from above (and below)?  Also, can you point me to the source line where this
offset is added in shipout because it is not there in \setuplayout.  If you
don't know what I mean, see MWE below.

Cheers, Henri
