package.
Summary description: Provides macros to collect the content of a tabular cell and provide it to a macro as argument
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This small package provides macros which collect the cell content of
a tabular and provide it to a macro as argument. It was inspired by the
collect@body macro defined by the amsmath or the environ package,
which can be used to collect the body of an environment. Special care
is taken to remove all aligning macros inserted by tabular from the cell
content. The macros also work in the last column of a table.
They do not support verbatim material inside the cells.
