How can I draw a line around text, but open on one side?
3
I'd like to do something similar to boxed{whatever}, but with the box open one side. Something like the following.
documentclass{article}
begin{document}
[
overline{underline{abc |}}
]
end{document}
which results in the following output (ugly, but conceptually close to what I want):
I suppose there is a simple way to do what I need, but I couldn't find it.
