Creating right tab with leader consisting of unbroken (mid) line [resend]

[Michael Kerrisk]

Hello,

I have a simple question (I think). I Would like to create a visual
effect (that will be repeatedly used) where a some text on a line is
tabbed to the right margin, and preceded by an unbroken line that sits
at the mid-level of the characters in the text. Roughly it would look
like this:

 ------------------------------------------ mytext

where the final "t" falls at the right margin. The idea is that the
line should be unbroken (unlike my ASCII line above), as one might get
by splicing together a series of en- or em-dashes.

I can get something close to this effect using a Right Tab, and
specifying the leader character as underscore (_):

 ________________________ mytext

But the problem is that the line falls at the bottom on the
characters, when I want it in the middle.

I don't seem to be able to specify an en- or em-dash as the leader
character for the tab. But perhaps I missed something. Is this
possible (and will it produce the result I want)? Failing that, is
there another way of achieving the kind of effect I'm describing?

I am using FrameMaker 7.2. (If what I'm wanting to do is possible only
in a later version of FrameMaker, that would be interesting to know.)

Thanks,

Michael
