Summary description: Small package for typesetting specified width tables

Announcement text:
Upgrade of the widetable.sty package so as to exploit the e-TeX computation facilities if they are available and activated. All modern distributions of the TeX system should be able to exploit these facilities.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/widetable/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/widetable (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

widetable – An environment for typesetting tables of specified width
The package defines a new environment that, unlike tabularX, typesets a table of specified width by working on the inter-column glue; the tabular cells will all be stretched (or shrunk) according to need.
The package will use the e-TeX arithmetic extensions if they are available (they are, in most modern distributions).
