It's not clear how (if?) you can do the following:

  • insert a unicode character (e.g. \spade) into the output.
  • color the text that represents a link: *[post.url http://litcave.rudi.ir/ \m[green]boohoo\m[]]
  • combine the two *[post.url http://litcave.rudi.ir \m[green]\spade\m[]]
  • using the above three -- put them in as a table cell
  • have multiple word text: *[post.url http://litcave.rudi.ir "hello world"]

If these are possible, adding something to the demo directory or as a FAQ section in the documentation would be helpful.

I think the main document is a better place as it's more comprehensive.

If the header can be made to work correctly, the attached would make a complex example:
jh.txt

All of those would be helpful and you're right that neatstart.pdf works well.

I'd never looked at tmac.tbl before. It looks reasonably simple. How hard would it be to remove the 7-column limitation? I took a quick look at tmac.gr. Examples would definitely help as, in contrast with tmac.tbl, it's not clear to me how I'd use it.

There's a typo in the grbar2 declaration...missing a second period.
