\makeslidetitle{\macroname{stepwise} Example: A Tabular}

% In the following, a tabular object is built incrementally. 
% Observe how & and \\ are placed inside the following step to avoid `opening' empty cells.
% The macro \tabend is redefined to `replace' the final \hline by \cline's when a line is not yet complete.

  \newcommand{\tabend}{\\\hline}%
