Hi Rustom,

I think the issue is that you have missed assigning a column (the 3rd) to a group.  Also, to simplify things, as stated no the link you gave, you can just specify the start of column groups.  Something like the following should work as expected:

* head
  | /         | <                   |<    | <   |
  | some text | and some more       | d e | fg  |
  |           |                     |     |     |
