fo, line wrap on index format.

2004-04-23 06:13:41

Desired layout is 


[date][free text field, long or short][leader][amount]
I.e. typical index formatting.

E.g. 

12 Nov short free text ................... 12.50
13 Nov long free text which causes a wrap
       to here ........................... 13.50
14 Nov the nasty one with just enough txt.
                                           14.50

I.e. the text is just enough to cause the wrap, 
    yet the leader is on the first line.

Problem, 

How to manage the line wrap.

table that shows it.
The empty cell is to keep clear separation between the free text field and
the amount.
