Yes, the "the" in my sentence was far too strong. I use @def because
- the indentation is much better than that of table
- indexation comes for free
- the fonts are pretty clear and make it easy to find the documentation
of something (in addition they seem bigger)
- the ability to leave a note on the left most part is nice.

Gosh, no! @table is overindenting IMHO.

A remarkable review of all the parsing techniques. Because the book is
out of print, its authors made it freely available:
