Tables query (MKII, latest beta)

Tables query (MKII, latest beta)

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1248 bytes --]

I have a simple, multi-page table that is currently defined by

\setuptables[bodyfont=9pt]
\starttables[|l|p(15pc)|]

The problem is that the text in the cells on the right that have more  
than one line is set almost solid and is often too close to the next  
row.

So how can I adjust/control the vertical spacing both between and  
within rows?

\setuptables[bodyfont=9pt,\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]]
gets:
! Missing \endcsname inserted.

                                                   ]

I apologize if this is a FAQ: my review of the wiki and of core- 
tab.tex has been most instructive, but not on this issue.

This sample will show the crowding within a cell and between rows.

You could use this for the time being but I hope myself Hans
can fix the spacing.

\starttable[|l|b{\setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex]}p(.6\textwidth)|]

Thanks, Wolfgang!

This is a great improvement---here is no crowding any cell now. There   
remain , however, a few (many fewer) crowded rows.
So here’s hoping that Hans can get to this and make the required  
adjustments.

i'll upload a fix

(wolfgang: at some point we can clean up this table module, merge 
everything into one file erc etc; then i can also redo the coloring of 
cells)
