Use of natural table

Use of natural table

[Jean-Pierre Le Narzul]

Hello,

Is there something special to do (configuration ...) to have support
for natural tables ? 

I got the following error when inserting \bTABLE ... \eTABLE code  :

You're using a very old version, that made use of some pdftex feature. The
current implementation should not give that error.

PS. later today i will upload a new main version so that i can use the
beta's for some new experimental features

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I have downloaded yesterday the beta version of context from your web
site.

You mean that I should download the current version (and not the beta
version) to get the right implementation of natural table ?
