lrboxSynopsis:
\begin{lrbox}{box-cmd}
text
\end{lrbox}
The text inside the environment is saved in the bin
box-cmd. The box-cmd must begin with a
backslash. You must create this bin in advance with \newsavebox
(see \newsavebox). This is the environment form of the \sbox
and \savebox commands, and is equivalent to them. See \sbox & \savebox for the full information.
In this example the environment is convenient for entering the
tabular.
