TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Etc. The first column is of essentially fixed length, and no leader dots are
needed. Also, if headings in the TOC wrap to a second line, setting a
hanging indent automagically takes care of the wrapping, whereas page
numbers on the right create problems.
PageMaker's automatic TOCing facility allows users to precede headings with
page numbers; in other packages I've seen, running a macro will move the
page numbers to the start of the paragraph.
