Hello Tasos

I can only comment on your first question.

Context offers you three environments:

1. tabulate \starttabulate[|||]  ... \stoptabulate
2. tables    \startable [|||]  ... \stoptable
3. natural tables  \bTABLE
                                 \bTR
                                     \bTD ... \eTD \eTR
                              \eTABLE

Information concerning the first two methods you can find in
e.g. mp-cb-en.pdf en cont-enp.pdf
The third method you can study in enattab.pdf (examples) and up-008.pdf
The third method is probably the most powerful!

Zou might have a look at the Pragma ade site where you can download the
mentioned files under overview.htm:

Have fun! Willi
