There are some issues with linetables. In the current version:
2012.04.07 14:42 linetables don't compile at all, example:
\starttext
\setuplinetable [n=2]
\startlinetable
\NC \input knuth \NC \input knuth \NC\NR
\NC \input knuth \NC \input knuth \NC\NR
\stoplinetable
\stoptext
Given the context version 2011.05.18 18:04 there seems to be a
bug in linetables; the lines are not aligned when the columns are
distributed on several pages and the lines don't fall on the same
page. One-page linetables work fine. Example:
\setuplinetable [n=2]
\starttext
\startbuffer
\startlinetable
\NC \input knuth \NC \input ward \NC\NR
\NC \bf\input ward \NC \bf\input knuth \NC\NR
\stoplinetable
\stopbuffer
% linetable on one single page
\setuplinetable [c][1] [width=.5\textwidth]
\setuplinetable [c][2] [width=.5\textwidth]
\getbuffer
\page
% linetable streched over two pages
\setuplinetable [c][1] [width=\textwidth]
\setuplinetable [c][2] [width=\textwidth]
\getbuffer
\stoptext

the \dostoptatributes can go (a leftover from mkii)

there is no width checking
linetables were written for a specific project and never completed to be
more multi-purpose
adding some support for the height alignment is not too complex
(although I would probably write the code from scratch) but is not on
the agenda for now (maybe when I need it or when I've finished cleaning
up the other code)
(maybe I will extend xtable with horizontal splitting)
