I was just writing a mail (below) and saw:
They do indic scripts and Kai made the first version of the
devanagari code for the context fontloader code that I then optimized.
Fascinating. Where can I learn more about that or is that
user-unfriendly (my technical knowledge is rather limited).

I would suggest not to use \starttable at all.
To me the most suitable table environment for such a table is \bTABLE \eTABLE.
It gives you all kind of control over layout, dimensions, frames on and off etc.

Is there a way for a macro to check the previous value of #1, the last time

Here is a minimum working example, pretending that `\previousvalue` is equal to

I want to put a book title above the Chapter title for the first chapter of a
book. I suppose that this can be accomplished with a 'before=' clause that
checks to see if it is the first chapter... but how do I look at the chapter
number in order to set up the conditional?

Hi,
In the example below I can do \cite[short][hh2010] to get the citation
