Could we say I never wrote this, I saw yesterday I need p columns in my tables
and the current tabulause command did not work but the following solution did
what I want.

\def\tabulateuse#1%
  {\dorecurse{\numexpr2*#1-1\relax}{\span\omit}\raggedright\ignorespaces}

\appendtoks
    \let\use\tabulateuse
    \defineTABLEshorthands
\to \everytabulate

\starttext

\starttabulate[|p(4cm)|p(4cm)|p(6cm)|]
\NC \dorecurse{10}{text } \NC \dorecurse{8}{text } \NC
\dorecurse{18}{text } \NC\NR
\NC \TWO Short text spanning two tabulate paragraphs. \NC
\dorecurse{22}{text } \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext

I have to set the width for each colum but I could now use p columns.
