On Sun, 27 Feb 2011 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the

  collcell

package.

Summary description: Update to v0.5: Some bug fixes and removed limitations
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This updated fixes some limitations of the previous version.
The following uses are now supported:
  * Empty cells before \\
  * Missing \\ 
  * Use inside \multicolumn
  * Use of # inside collected cells (except inside \multicolumn which doesn't support this by itself)
  * Use around or inside other >{} <{} material
  * Cascaded use of \collectcell
  * The argument of \collectcell can now consist of multiple tokens
  * Material inside <{} before \endcollectcell is now also collected if it is part of the last column
  * An almost-verbatim version of \verb is provided (uses the version of the 'tabularx' package)
  * supports 'tabular', 'tabularx', 'array' as well as 'tabularx' in the LaTeX or TeX syntaxes as well as in \csname ... \endcsname (except 'tabularx' which doesn't support this by itself).

And some more smaller features. See the manual for details.
The code has been improved and more documentation has been added.

Acknowledgements and Thanks goes to:
Heiko Oberdiek, "GL", Joseph Wright and Hendrik Vogt for their feedback and help on comp.text.tex, using PM and on http://tex.stackexchange.com .
