The fancy tricks one can to with Natural Tables seem to work within
the body of the table where I don't need them but fail in the header
area where I do need them.
This example, takein from the wiki, works (of course.)
\setupTABLE[row][odd][background=color,backgroundcolor=red,
width=.2\textwidth]
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\bTR \bTD[nr=3] 1 \eTD \bTD[nc=2] 2/3 \eTD \bTD[nr=3] 4 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD[nc=3] 1/2/3 \eTD \bTD 4 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 1 \eTD \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \bTD 4 \eTD \eTR
\eTABLE
But if I convert the above data items to header items the run fails.
Specifically the following fails:
\setupTABLE[row][odd][background=color,backgroundcolor=red,
width=.2\textwidth]
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\bTABLEhead
\bTR \bTH[nr=3] 1 \eTH \bTH[nc=2] 2/3 \eTH \bTH[nr=3] 4 \eTH \eTR
\bTR \bTH 2 \eTH \bTH 3 \eTH \eTR
\bTR \bTH 2 \eTH \bTH 3 \eTH \eTR
\bTR \bTH[nc=3] 1/2/3 \eTH \bTH 4 \eTH \eTR
\bTR \bTH 1 \eTH \bTH 2 \eTH \bTH 3 \eTH \bTH 4 \eTH \eTR
\eTABlehead
\eTABLE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What did I miss?
Here is the error message:
bTR \bTH [nr=3] 1 \eTH \bTH [nc=2] 2/3 \eTH \bTH [nr=3] 4 \eTH \eTR
\ETC.
