-<h3>How to change a whole row of a table</h3>
-<p/>Each cell of a table is set in a box, so that a change of font style
-(or whatever) only lasts to the end of the cell. If one has a
-many-celled table, or a long one which needs lots of rows emphasising,
-putting a font style change command in every cell will be impossibly
-tedious.
-<p/>With the <i>array</i> package, you can define column modifiers
-which will change the font style for a whole <em>column</em>. However,
-with a bit of subtlety, one can make such modifiers affect rows rather
-than columns. So, we set things up by:
-<blockquote>
-
-<pre>
-\usepackage{array}
-\newcolumntype{$}{&#62;{\global\let\currentrowstyle\relax}}
-\newcolumntype{^}{&#62;{\currentrowstyle}}
-\newcommand{\rowstyle}[1]{\gdef\currentrowstyle{#1}%
- #1\ignorespaces
-}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-Now, we put &#8216;<code>$</code>&#8217; before the first column specifier; and we
-put &#8216;<code>^</code>&#8217;
-before the modifiers of subsequent ones. We then use <code>\</code><code>rowstyle</code> at
-the start of each row we want to modify:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{tabular}{|$l|^l|^l|} \hline
- \rowstyle{\bfseries}
- Heading & Big and & Bold \\ \hline
- Meek & mild & entry \\
- Meek & mild & entry \\
- \rowstyle{\itshape}
- Strange & and & italic \\
- Meek & mild & entry \\ \hline
-\end{tabular}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-The <i>array</i> package works with several other
-<code>tabular</code>-like environments from other packages (for
-example <code>longtable</code>), but unfortunately this trick won&#8217;t
-always work.
