setupthinrules

[Hans van der Meer <hansm@science.uva.nl>]

Doing thinrules one can place a number of them.
However the interlinespace seems fixed to whatever has been chosen  
for "small, medium, big".
I looked into the code but could not find a more flexible mechanism,  
as for example
	interlinedistance=dimension

Trying to get the rules close to one another I tried
	\setupthinrules[height=2pt,depth=0pt,interlinespace=medium]
	\thinrule\godown[1pt]\thinrule
But the natural height of the lines then interfers. Setting \godown 
[negative amount] will work, of course, but seems unnatural to me.
At least I feel it condems me to trial and error between the rule  
dimensions and the amount of backspace.

I therefore suggest making the interlinespace accessible as a  
distance settable by the user and being the separation between the  
bottom of the upper and the top of the lowerline in the case of  
\thinrules[n=2].

By the way, doesn't that give thinrules then the same option as in  
setuptextrules[distance=dimension]?
