Table bug in MkIV?

Table bug in MkIV?

[Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد]

Dear gang,

It seems that \starttable has a bug in MkIV:

\starttext
   \starttable{|c|c|c|}
   \HL
   \VL Test \VL  Test  \VL Test \VL\FR
   \stoptable
\stoptext

This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.71.0-2011071409 (rev 4332)
  \write18 enabled.
(placetable.tex

ConTeXt  ver: 2011.11.05 01:19 MKIV  fmt: 2011.11.6  int: english/english

:

! Undefined control sequence.

system          > tex > error on line 3 in file placetable.tex: Undefined  
control sequence ...

1     \starttext
2       \starttable{|c|c|c|}
3 >>    \HL
4       \VL Test \VL  Test  \VL Test \VL\FR
5       \stoptable
6     \stoptext
7

l.3   \HL

?

Works in mkii (this is part of my ongoing work to port my huge mkii  
project to MkIV).

Please advise!

Best wishes
Idris

Use bracket for the argument and not braces: “[|c|c|c|]”.

Ok, thanks guys. One question though: Why does the error give me an  
undefined control sequence? This sent me down dead ends as I tried to  
figure out what was wrong in the main project...

Thnx again and

Best wishes

\HL is only a valid command in the table environment in your example the command was seen by TeX (when \starttable was looking for the column alignment) before it was defined.
