;; `org-latex-table' is the entry point for table transcoding.  It
;; takes care of tables with a "verbatim" mode.  Otherwise, it
;; delegates the job to either `org-latex--table.el-table',
;; `org-latex--org-table', `org-latex--math-table' or
;; `org-latex--org-align-string-tabbing' functions,
;; depending of the type of the table and the mode requested.
;;
;; `org-latex--align-string' is a subroutine used to build alignment
;; string for Org tables.
