Hello, In my quest for tables similar to what the 'booktabs' package in LaTeX produces, I have run into a problem: something like '\bTABLE[distance=7.5pt]' will give me the sought for gaps in horizontal lines, but I have trouble implementing an uninterrupted topframe for the first and bottomframe

Hello, When formating tables the first row (top of the header) is easily formated by using for example: \setupTABLE[row][1][rulethickness=0.90pt,topframe=on] I was wondering whether there's an equivalent for specifically addressing the LAST row in a table? Something along the lines of

[NTG-context] emacs lisp for context in AucTeX

I wrote the following emacs lisp for my .emacs and pass it on (no copyright) in case others find it useful. I used variants for a decade with the old tex mode, but just rewrote it for auctex and for context's display math syntax (which deprecates $$...$$). The purpose: 1. If you type {, [, or (,

Hello, There's something wrong in using (old)texexec/metapost on an input file named file.001.tex (I guess that 001 could be any number): the mp graphic is not generated. If I change file.001.tex to file.tex, it works ok. I attach the test file used if it can be useful. Regards, BG try2.0
