+The tabularew environment is similar to tabular (LaTeX kernel) but adds
+a new command to modify the horizontal alignment in certain circumstances.
+
+It solves the problem of centering multicolumn headings when they are
+wider than the text underneath them. (In a tabular environment they are
+aligned to the left, even if they contain a "c" in their preamble.)
+
+It is actually a workaround for a (mis)feature of TeX alignment algorithm.
+
+Comments and suggestions are welcome, especially for the user interface.
