OK, here is my take, based on earlier posts, bringing together some
'technologies':
(1) make a document function which isolatees the code
(2) then call it where needed
(3) use the built in conversion code
(4) use so called unique mp graphics (smaller files, faster run)
(5) use symbols to get the baseline right
(6) use a little abstraction in the table setup
watch how we can pass a table instead of a string, so
context.startxtable { align = "middle,lohi", width = "0.8cm", offset =
"0.8ex", bodyfont = "9pt", framecolor = "cyan" }
is ok, but anm abstraction is even better. Now, who will wikify it ...
