realbox
package.
Summary description: Provides variants of common ``box''-macros which reads their content as real box and not as macro argument. License type: lppl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This LaTeX package uses the authors other package 'collectbox' to define variants of common box related macros which read the content as real box and not as macro argument. This enables the use of verbatim or other special material as part of this content.
The provided macros simply have the same names as the original versions but start with an upper-case letter instead. The long-form macros, like Makebox, can also be used as environments, but not the short-form macros, like Mbox. However, normally the long form uses the short form anyway when no optional arguments are used.
