Hoi Patrick,

Humble, I used just the \bTABLE ...\eTABLE environment. Please refer to the attached file.

Kind regards
Willi

Hello *,


inspired by Gerben's question, I did some experimenting with \framed.

I'd like to get A[text]B, where text is some long thing in a framed
box like \framed[width=5cm] {\input tufte \par}.

There are three different ways of aligning the three objects:


(A and B on the same baseline as the first row)

A We  thrive  in  information- B
-------------------------------
  thick worlds because of  our
  marvelous and  everyday  ca-


(A and B in the middle of the box, not necessarily on the same baseline as a line in the box)

criminate, distinguish, screen, A pigeonhole, pick over, sort, B
integrate, blend, inspect,



(A and B on the same baseline as the last row)

  from the chaff and seperate
A the sheeps from the  goats. B
--------------------------------



I was unable to get any of these alignments.
