Hi Aditya,

=C2=A0\startTABLE
\NC text 1 \NC text 2 \NC\NR
\NC text 3 \NC text 4 \NC\NR
\stopTABLE

Question for all: for MkIV, should we recommend ONLY natural tables to newc= omers, e.g., in a ConTeXt Book?

I have not used Natural Tables too much, but I can switch to those for futu= re work and consider Tables deprecated for most purposes.

I use only=C2=A0
1) b\TABLE\eTABLE
2) \starttabulate\stoptabulate
