natural tables

natural tables

[Hans Hagen]

Hi, 

I'm moving some new experimental code into the code. Those willing to test,
can give natural tables a try. See beta page for preliminary up to date and
beta zip for functionality. Keep in mind that things can change. Fancy test
tables are welcome. 

This mechanism is a multipass one, using a new feature, currently supported
in pdftex, but also available in dvi, but the perl code needed is not yet
in the distribution. [taco and I have to package it]

The two groups

    - \bTC … \eTC and
    - \bTX … \eTX

are the same as \bTD … \eTD and the group

    - \bTY … \eTY

is the same as \bTR … \eTR.

The only place in the source where bTC is mentioned is in
tabl-ntb.mkiv (and tabl-ntb.mkii), which says says

\unexpanded\def\bTC#1\eTC{\bTD#1\eTD} \let\eTC\relax
\unexpanded\def\bTX#1\eTX{\bTD#1\eTD} \let\eTX\relax
\unexpanded\def\bTY#1\eTY{\bTR#1\eTR} \let\eTY\relax

I guess that means \bTC and \bTD are the same (as is \bTX).
