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.
