It's all there in the current body of stuff. No, there are no tables because we don't USE tables. Be sure to keep seperate your needs for whatever documentation system you use in your own work (in which case you're free to use anything from nroff to LaTeX and the whole point is somewhat moot) and the needs of the project, in which you don't NEED no steenkin' table examples! :-)

They're in linuxdoc, they're just undocumented. I know how to do them in troff and LaTeX, and our man pages have them. Our handbook is full of them, Jordan, but they're all done but suspending the formatting, because no one can figure out how to do it right. That's not the only example.
