Nota : this packages requires pdfTeX.

The linegoal package provides a macro \linegoal
to be used with \setlength :
   \setlength<some dimen>\linegoal

will assign to <some dimen> the horizontal length
of the remainder of the line.

This is achieved using the \pdfsavepos primitive
and the zref-savepos package.

            three & four                    \\\hline
           \end{tabularx}
