Very nice your driver and your macros. I am working towards
providing a style option for LaTeX that would allow the inclusion
of wide figures or tables in landscape mode in documents that
are otherwise portrait, keeping the same page layout through the
document. I have had to fiddle with a lot of
LaTeX internals, as I want them to be floats and appear on
the same list of figures or list of tables than the regular
ones and keeping the same numbering scheme. No success yet,
some glue ends up in the wrong box, so the addition to the
\@currlist is OK but the insertion is not properly placed
in the page after all.
Has anyone done this or something similar before? Well, some
might not like what I am doing, but it took a lot of effort
to introduce TeX here, and people DO want such things, they
do it through cut and paste anyway.
Thanks in advance,
