Hello, suppose we need to typeset text into two (generally: several) columns. Depending on the length of the text in the first (generally: i-th) column we need to choose an alternative: 1) Short-text Some-text-in-the-second-column Another-text Some-other-text or: 2) Very-long-text-in-the-1st-column Some-text-in-the-second-column Another-text Some-other-text So, when the text in the first (or i-th resp.) column is too long, we need to go to the next row (generally: leaving all remaining columns empty) and skip the first column (generally: all columns being too long so far) automatically. Is there a way how to achieve this automatically, without manual check? (Suppose typesetting columns with \tabulate command(s) with width of the first column specified, like "|lw(2in)|p|".)
