The LaTeX <code>\</code><code>raggedright</code> command (and the +corresponding <code>flushleft</code> environment) has a tendency to +miss the "never" part, and will often create ridiculously short +lines, for some minor benefit later in the paragraph. The Plain +TeX version of the command doesn't suffer this failing, but is +rather conservative: it is loath to create too large a gap at the end +of the line, but in some circumstances (such as where + + +<a href="FAQ-hyphoff.html">hyphenation is suppressed</a>) painfully large gaps may +sometimes be required. +<p>Martin Schröder's <i>ragged2e</i> package offers the best of both +worlds: it provides raggedness which is built on the Plain TeX +model, but which is easily configurable. It defines easily-remembered +command (e.g., <code>\</code><code>RaggedRight</code>) and environment (e.g., +<code>FlushLeft</code>) names that are simply capitalised +transformations of the LaTeX kernel originals. The documentation +discusses the issues and explains the signficance of the various +parameters of <i>ragged2e</i>'s operation. +<dl> +<dt><tt><i>ragged2e.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed as part of <a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ms.zip">macros/latex/contrib/ms</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ms.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ms/">browse</a>) +</dl> +<p><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=ragright">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=ragright</a> +</body> |
