Block of text with natrual width but right-aligned
I have a few lines that I need to push towards the right maring. The lines should all have their natural width, and be all left-aligned to the left of the block, but the block itself should be right aligned. Like the following First line of text | Second line of text | One more line of text| How do I achieve this? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta

How do I achieve this?
One quick and easy way, without worrying about low-level commands, is with two nested \framed's: \framed[width=broad,align=left,frame=off,offset=0pt] {\framed[align=raggedright,frame=off,offset=0pt] {First line of text\\ Second line of text\\ One more line of text}} (I played with location= in \framedtext, but it didn't have the results I expected.) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
