Please make sure that you are using a recent version of TeXmacs
for discussions about table formatting, because I made some important
changes in may/june. In principle, it should be possible to do about
aby kind of complex table formatting, and it should be easier than before.
If you want something particular, and don't see how to do it,
then please explain clearly what you want.

Best wishes, Joris
