%
% \bigstrut[x] produces a strut which is \bigstrutjot (2pt by default) higher,
% lower, or both than the standard array/table strut.  Use it in table entries
% that are adjacent to \hline's to leave an extra bit of space - according to
% the TeXbook (page 246), "This is a little touch that improves the appearance
% of boxed tables; look for it as a mark of quality."
%
% Although you could use \bigstrut in an array, there isn't normally much
% point since arrays are "opened up" by \jot anyway.
%
% \bigstrut[t] adds height; \bigstrut[b] adds depth.  Just \bigstrut adds
% both.  So:  Use \bigstrut[t] in the row just *after* an \hline; \bigstrut[b]
% in the row just *before*; and \bigstrut if there are \hline's both before
% and after.
%
% Spaces after the \bigstrut are ignored, even if it has an optional argument.
% Spaces before the \bigstrut are generally ignored (by a single \unskip).
%
% Note:  The multirow style file makes use of \bigstrutjot.  If both styles
% are used, they can be used in either order, as each checks to see if the
% other has already defined \bigstrutjot.  However, the default values they
% set are different:  If only multirow is used, \bigstrutjot will be set to
% 3pt.  If bigstrut is used, with or without multirow, \bigstrutjot will be
% 2pt.
