Hi Abdulqadir

This is in response to your query in
http://nfbnet.org/pipermail/blindmath_nfbnet.org/2024-May/011055.html

There is prior art from 2022 on this. Or more exacting, in a 2022
discussion the experts knew of no prior art on this. I've copied
participants Jason White and Ulrike Fischer on this. I hope they'll give us
an update on this.

On 1 April 2022 Jason asked if there was a generally accepted Latex
convention for specifying which cells in a table are header cells. Without
such a convention creating column headers would be guesswork or ad-hoc
document specific markup.

On 2 April 2022 Ulrike replied that it won't be easy to create better
markup conventions that would solve Jason's problem.

with kind regards

Jonathan
