Hello,

First: in my edition of 'ConTeXt, an excursion' (V990527) on page 69
there seems to be something wrong with the small caps example.

There is written:

If you compare PDF, \cap{PDF} and \sc PDF:

But I guess there should be written

If you compare PDF, \cap{PDF} and \sc pdf:

with the latter not in caps, as \sc PDF renders exactly the same as \rm
PDF.
Besides, in the follwing line the first 'and' should perhaps be replaced
by a comma.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second: Typing in the 'City council elections' table from page 31
results in a 'misplaced \omit' complaint by TeX immediately when \FIVE
is read.
(ConTeXt  ver: 1999.9.30)

\starttable[|l|c|c|c|c|]
\HL
\VL \FIVE \JustCenter{City Council elections} \VL\SR
----^^^^^

Ignoring the error message leads to a table typset correctly. Quite the
same is true when saying \use{6} or something like that.
