Hello,
I've come across two issues with the tabu package version 2.8, and would appreciate help from the ML members:
1. I've defined the new commands
\newcommand{\btabu}{\begin{tabu}}
\newcommand{\etabu}{\end{tabu}}
but this minimal example
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{tabu}
\usepackage{colortbl}
\begin{document}
\newcommand{\btabu}{\begin{tabu}}
\newcommand{\etabu}{\end{tabu}}
\btabu{ l l }
1 & 2 \\
a & b \\
\etabu
\end{document}
returns the error:
! Missing $ inserted.
<inserted text>
$
l.16 \end{document}
changing \etabu to \end{tabu} removes the error.
2. The tabularborder package clashes with tabu and colortbl. here's a minimal example:
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{tabu}
\usepackage{colortbl}
\usepackage{tabularborder}
\begin{document}
\newcommand{\btabu}{\begin{tabu}}
\newcommand{\etabu}{\end{tabu}}
\begin{tabu}{ l l }
1 & 2 \\
a & b \\
\end{tabu}
\end{document}
which gives the error:
! Undefined control sequence.
<template> ... at setup \CT at row@color \CT at cell@color
\CT at do@color \endgroup \@t...
l.15 \end{tabu}
Any suggestions how to solve this?
TIA,
Joel
