+The collcell Package
+--------------------
+Copyright (C) 2009-2011 by Martin Scharrer <martin@scharrer-online.de>
+http://www.ctan.org/pkg/collcell/
+Version v0.1 -- 2011/02/04
+
+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.
+
+
+Usage
+
+This package provides the macros \collectcell and \endcollectcell which are
+supposed to be used with the >{ } and <{ } tabular column declarations of the
+array package. This can be done either in the argument of tabular or using
+\newcolumntype.
+
+The following code defines a 'E' column which passes the contents of its cell to
+\usermacro as an argument. The macro can the process the content as usual.
+
+% Preamble:
+\usepackage{array}
+\usepackage{collcell}
+% Preamble or document:
+\newcolumntype{E}{>{\collectmacro\usermacro}c<{\endcollectmacro}}
+% Document:
+\begin{tabular}{lE}
+A & Example \\ % Same as \usermacro{Example}
+B & Text    \\ % Same as \usermacro{Text}
+\end{tabular}
+
+For example \usermacro could be \fbox and wrap the cell content in a frame box.
+More complicated macros are also supported as long they take one argument. This
+package was originally programmed to be used with the \tikztiming macro of the
+tikz-timing package. This macro takes some complex user input and draws a timing
+diagram from it
+
+Note that if such a cell contains a tabular environment by itself, the
+environment must be wrapped in braces '{ }' to ensure proper operation.
