TABLE of tab columns
!+TABLE+
!+TABLE+ define table of tab column boundaries ________________________________________________
This code puts the user into Table Mode: text is formatted into
one or more columns bounded as specified, which are directly
accessible using a tab code (!-T<x>- or !-U<x>-).
!+TABLE<bounds>[;<bounds>...]+
<bounds> ________: <index>=<left>,<right>[<mod>]
C
L _
R
<index>...the tab number
<left>....the column in which the text column begins
<right>...the column in which the text column ends
<mod>.....a positional modifier:
C...the text is centered within the column
L _...the text is left justified within the column
R...the text is right justified within the column
NOTES _____
• This code is similar (but unrelated) to !+SETTAB+, except that
rather than specifying a single position, it defines two column
positions, the left and right boundaries of the table entry
(slot), between which the text following the tab code is
placed.
• Each new line code (!-S<n>-) specifies the beginning of a new
table row (as well as spacing "n" lines), whereas each tab code
(!-T<x>- or !-U<x>-) specifies the beginning of a new table
not slot (but ___ a new line).
• Any text following a tab code too large for a column is
automatically continued on the next line (at the proper column
position).
