Hi,
How do I insert a noalign in tabulate. It seems that noalign messes up
the width calculations of paragraphs. This is what I tried.
\starttext
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\noalign{Some quotes}
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\TABLEnoalign{Some quotes}
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
Suggestions?
Aditya

as much trial and error for me as for you
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\noalign{\hbox{Some quotes}}
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
\starttabulate
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NR
\TABLEnoalign{\hbox{Some quotes}}
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NR
\stoptabulate
otherwise you get a paragraph

It seems that noalign messes up width calculation. Here is one
possibility:
\startbuffer
\starttabulate
\NC nofautotabulate \NC \the\nofautotabulate \NC \NR
\NC tabulatewidth \NC \the\tabulatewidth \NC \NR
\NC tufte \NC \input tufte \NC \NR
\mynoalign{\vbox{some quotes that are used for generating sample
text in a lot of \CONTEXT\ documents again and again}}
\NC zapf \NC \input zapf \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\let\mynoalign\noalign
\getbuffer
\page
\def\mynoalign
{\iftrialtypesetting \expandafter\gobbleoneargument
\else \expandafter\TABLEnoalign \fi}
\getbuffer
\stoptext
