What I use here it's something like that :

\fbox{begin{minipage}{14cm}
bla bla bla
\end{minipage}}

With minipage environment you can fix the width of the text.

 the customisation guide helps me understands that i can create a laout
 the

 Environment)
 
 , but i dont know how to do it it both at the same type, ie a layout
 that would emit fbox { \begin{Benumerate} athe begining, and
 \end{Benumerate}
 } at the end?

try

 \fbox{\parbox{14cm}{  ...  any text with paragraphs ... }}

14cm is the width of the box, choose any value you like or

\fbox{\parbox{1.0\columnwidth}{ ... bl bla bla ...}} for the maximum.

framed paragraph

2000-04-04 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

i would like to frame a paragraph, ie longer than a few words.
fbox{} is not good enough, as it does not works for more thatb one line.

the fancybox package, inlcuded in tetex helps a lot, but most of the
commands
need somrthing like

fbox {
 \begin{Benumerate}
...
 \end{Benumerate}
}

the customisation guide helps me understands that i can create a laout
the
fbox (with Latextype commnand), or \begin...\end (with Latextype
Environment)

, but i dont know how to do it it both at the same type, ie a layout
that would emit fbox { \begin{Benumerate} athe begining, and
\end{Benumerate}
} at the end?

do i have to create a latex package for this ? (im complete novice in
that)

Try doing each separately.
Setup an fbox layout with the line:
KeepEmpty True

(check the guide for the right name it's something like that)
This will ensure that fbox can be filled with another command or
environment.  Then setup a Benumerate layout also.

Check the slides.layout file for examples of how this is done.
