I'm playing around with boxed text, and in an effort to spice up the
appearence of the box, tried to place horizontal lines above and below the
box, just for added visual interest. Here's what I have:
\rule [1mm]{4.5cm}{.2mm}
\fbox{\parbox{5cm}{
Just some filler text to keep things interesting
}}
\rule [-1.2mm]{4.5cm}{.2mm}
Now, what I would like is to center the two lines with respect to the box
itself, so that they don't hug the left side. Faking it with forced spaces is
ugly and seems inappropriate. Any suggestions?
