+% \LaTeX\ language. The advantage of using the \pack{xparse}

+% The closing statement will actually do the whole job. It first sets
+% |\tabcolsep| to zero and typesets the resulting table into box zero;
+% It uses, with parameter \texttt{\#4}, the table body collected with
+% the argument descriptor \texttt{b} of the opening command.
%
-% Then it sets |\tabcolsep| to 1\,cm (arbitrarily chosen) and

% is $l_0$ and that of box two is $l_1$; these are the lengths
% needed by the equation that evaluates the final typesetting
-% intercolumn spacing.
-% The arbitrary constant of 1\,cm is $t_1$, and the specified
-% width $l$ is the dimension saved into |\wt@width|. The
-% subtractions are operated directly on the dimension
-% registers |\wt@width| (the numerator), and on the auxiliary
-% register |\@tempdimenb|; the |\WT@scale| command is executed
-% in order to get the scaling ratio and the final definitive
-% value of |\tabcolsep| is eventually computed.

-% We finally can define the most important macro that gets

-% The environment name is assigned to the macro |\@tempB|,
-% which is checked against the correct name |widetable|
-% saved in macro |\@tempC| by the opening command. If the
-% names match, then the table body is assigned to the token
-% register zero, to be used later on by the typesetting macros.
-% But if the names don't match, then something went wrong
-% and a package message is issued to explain what happened
-% and how the program will manage the situation.
-%
-% Specifically the names may not match if a cell contained
-% another environment and its whole |\begin{...}...\end{...}|
-% was not closed within a pair of matched braces. If an
-% enclosed environment is hidden within a group, the delimited
-% argument macro |\wt@getTable| will ignore such embedded
-% environment, otherwise it will get a non matching name
-% and messy things might happen. Besides warning about this
-% fact, the body of the table, at least what has been read
-% by the macro, will be discarded and substituted with a box
-% containing a message; therefore a table will be typeset,
-% but not the desired one. The remaining part of the body
-% remains in the input stream and might cause, presumably,
-% strange errors, such as |&| characters used outside a
