Hi dear Patrick, That's what Bob Stayton writes:
"Here is how you specify column width values: 'colwidth' specifies the desired width of the relevant column. It can be either a fixed measure using one of the CALS units (36pt, 10pc, etc.) or a proportional measure. Proportional measures have the form “number*”, meaning this column should be number times wider than a column with the measure “1*” (or just “*”). These two forms can be mixed, as in “3*+1pc”.
