Clarke,
Thank you, but I think that left- and right alignment works without referring to tabs in any way. The reason I am interested in this `line drawing' scheme is that, if it works, it can be used
in many other cases as well. Thanks, Miklos On 29/11/2006, at 3:25 AM, Clarke Echols wrote:
If you are operating in no-fill mode, why not use .tc to define the tab character? You can then set up the left-right justification and troff/groff replaces a tab character between left-hand and right-hand text with a multiple series of the character defined by .tc. You have to use .ta <dimension> R to get the right-aligned segment where <dimesion> identifies the location of the right-hand margin and R indicates right-justified text to that margin. This is commonly used when constructing a table of contents or index page. I think it's called a "leader" (fading memory :-) ).
