All TCM table editors are very similar. With each table editor
you can create and manipulate textual tables, i.e. tables in which
the cells are filled with a multi-line text string.
The table editors offer a lot of layout facilities and TCM has
special purpose table editors that have constraints built-in for a
specific modeling technique. Furthermore, the tables that are made
by TCM are kept graphically consistent and TCM keeps track of
the contents of the tables, which is important when you
have to do a lot of updates.
