wml::fmt::xtable(3)
NAME
wml::fmt::xtable - HTML tables through Advanced Syntax
SYNOPSIS
#use wml::fmt::xtable <xtable table-options> initial text (e.g. <caption> ... </caption>). (X, Y) options for cell (X, Y) text for cell (X,Y)... ((X,Y)) options for header cell X,Y text for header cell (X,Y)... </xtable>
DESCRIPTION
This is just a WML wrapper for interfacing the freetable(1) utility
which converts its advanced table syntax to plain HTML table markup
code. See freetable(1) for more details.
CAVEATS
An error is reported if "xtable" body contains ePerl code, so the
special variable "IPP_NOSYNCLINES" has to be written onto "#include"
lines (see wml_p1_ipp(1)), and macros expanded by "mp4h"(1) must not
print ePerl code.
