`supertab' (I just found it in the stuff I copied down a week or two
ago).  It is another ad-hoc approach: it simply counts lines.  If you
try to set paragraph entries (with something like

	\begin{supertabular}{|lp{4in}}

for instance), it will assume that each paragraph will be one line
high---presumably false, else why did you use a p format?
