Re: Text centered in box of fixed height & width

[Jeff Kingston]

In the first place, you could switch to the other @Box symbol - the
more advanced one from the @Diag package, which has an option for
this.

If you want to be a Lout hacker, then

    @Box 1cm @High 5cm @Wide {
        //0.5rt |0.5rt text |
        //
    }

should work.  But package it in a definition, like this:

    import @BasicSetup
    def @CBox right x
    {
        @Box 1cm @High 5cm @Wide {
            //0.5rt |0.5rt x |
            //
        }
    }

so that you can just write

    dum de dum
    @CD @CBox { NUCLEAR ALERT! }
    dum de dum
