linegoal – A "dimen" that returns the space left on the line
The linegoal package provides a macro \linegoal to be
used with \setlength:\setlength<some dimen>\linegoal
will set <some dimen> to the horizontal length of the
remainder of the line.
This is achieved using the \pdfsavepos primitive of
pdftex, through the zref-savepos package.
Example:
Some text: \begin{tabularx}\linegoal{|l|X|} \hline
one & two \\
three & four \\\hline
\end{tabularx}
will position the table after the initial text, and make the table
fill the rest of the line.
