Hang rest of paragraph after specific point (or token)

Say I have some point in a sentence that I want the rest of the paragraph to hang after; result like this:



PART / Long title that won't fit on one line that
we want hanged after the slash on the next line


I made this work ish by calculating the width of a box containing the PART / prefix, like so:



documentclass{article}
% Prevent extra indent
setlengthparindent{0pt}
% Box to contain the stuff that the text will hang after
newboxpartprefixBox
% The stuff that the text will hang after
defpartprefix{Large PART /nobreakspace}
% Set part-header-prefix into the box
setboxpartprefixBox=hbox{partprefix}
begin{document}
bgroup
% Set the hangindent size (using the box width)
hangindent=wdpartprefixBox%
hangafter=1%
partprefix Long title that won't fit on one line that we want hanged after the slash on the next linepar
egroup
end{document}


I'm wondering if there is a more robust way of doing this, and whether there is a way to do it with centered text (i.e. if the text is not gonna break, then it should be centered).



Ideally something like a hanghere command that would work like so:



PART / hanghere Long title that won't fit on one line that we want hanged after the slash on the next line


or this syntax would also work



hanghere{PART / }Long title that won't fit on one line that we want hanged after the slash on the next line


and produce the first mentioned result



Any ideas?
Help is very much appreciated.

  • @egreg that syntax would definitely work!

  • If you want to center the thing when it fits a line, then both parts should be passed as arguments.

Measure the natural width and decide:



documentclass{article}

newlength{partlength}

newcommand{perhapshang}[2]{%
parnoindent
sbox0{#1 / #2}%
ifdimwd0<linewidth
makebox[linewidth]{usebox0}%
else
settowidth{partlength}{#1mbox{ }/mbox{ }}%
hangafter 1
hangindentpartlength
#1mbox{ }/mbox{ }#2
fi
par
}

begin{document}

perhapshang{PART}{Long title that won't fit on one line
that we want hanged after the slash on the next line}

perhapshang{PART}{This is short}

end{document}


I use mbox{ } in order to get rigid space.
