I'm not quite sure what you want here; some context-specific things
are doable with the current setup. For example, if you want less
space before a list in a table, you could add the setting to
your \tablefontspecs:
\def\tablefontspecs{%
\ninepointss
\prelevskip=15pt}
etc.

| 362.2 | Perhaps this is what he wants... | EDEN::DENHAM | Jeff Denham, DTN 223-6770 | Tue May 19 1987 17:20 | 33 |
| I think Marty means that when he puts a list in table column, he'd like
less space surrounding the list than when he puts a list into a plain
old paragraph:
Table 1-1: A Table with a List
-----------------------------------------------------
Column 1 Column 2
-----------------------------------------------------
Item the first Item the first has three
characteristics:
o one --
o two | Less
o three | Space
But none is significant. --
Item the second Buzz buzz
-------------------------------------------------------
1.2 Item the First: A Paragraph with a List
Item the first has three characteristics:
o one --
o two | More space around the list.
o three |
--
But none is significant.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two contexts, two spacing schemes. And all without fiddling with TeX.

then my suggestion in .1 is the way to do that.

Sorry, I should have been more specific. The problem is that sometimes a
list begins a column in a table, and since the list puts out a \prelevskip,
the list doesn't align properly in the row:
Table 1-1: A Table with a List
-----------------------------------------------------
Column 1 Column 2
-----------------------------------------------------
Item the zeroth -- extra space
o One due to list
o Two
o Three
-------------------------------------------------------
The context here is "List at beginning of table column," rather than
just "List in table."
Another case would be when a list comes right after a heading. Then
you have extra space because of the combination of \prelevskip with
the post heading skip.

ok, now I understand. various types of space fiddling in tables
and lists are on the wishlist, this among them.

| 362.6 | Overheads skips 2 spaces | COOKIE::JOHNSTON | | Wed May 20 1987 18:01 | 19 |
| If you didn't already have it noted, tables in overheads skip
*2* lines when a list is used. One work around is to use <line><line>
before the word(s) in the "superior" column.
There are other workarounds, but I won't list all that I know.
Kids
o Some like 'em
o Some don't like 'em
o I don't know
<table_row>(<line><line>Kids\<list>(unnumbered)...)
