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

Hi,

for my experimenting with tables: is there a way to set up individual 
columns in xtables? Maybe I'm thick tonight, but I couldn't find 
anything in the manual or the source. If I have this setup


\setupTABLE [frame=on,split=repeat]
\setupTABLE [column] [1] [width=0.7cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE [column] [2] [width=0.5cm,align=left]
\setupTABLE [column] [3] [width=6cm,align={normal,verytolerant,stretch}]
\setupTABLE [column] [4] [width=8cm,align={normal,verytolerant,stretch}]
\setupTABLE [column] [5] [width=1cm,align={normal,verytolerant,stretch}]

how would this translate into \setupxtable?
