added a simple RTL table
\stopcolumns
</texcode>
=== Tables ===
CONTEXT has several mechanisms for typesetting tables: see [[Tables_Overview]]. Natural tables are the recommended construct, but they are somewhat verbose. It's easier for quick small tables to use the older macros adapted (and enhanced) from the TABLE package. This is not actively developed, so we do not hope for new RTL features in particular.
Using them on their own leads ignores the paragraph direction and sets an LTR table. However, when wrapped in {{cmd|leftaligned}} or its friends, we get RTL/LTR tables depending on the paragraph direction.
