feature request - inverse of |||

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

msc {
  one,two,three;

  one rbox one [label = "this is the first entity" ];
  two rbox two [label = "this is the second entity" ];
  three rbox three [label = "this is the third entity" ];
}

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would like to have an option to cause the boxes to all align 
horizontally.  Perhaps an inverse of the ||| command?  For example:

msc {
  one,two,three;

  one rbox one [label = "this is the first entity" ];
  ---;
  two rbox two [label = "this is the second entity" ];
  ---;
  three rbox three [label = "this is the third entity" ];
}

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

0.14, winxp sp3

sigh, i forgot that --- is already a keyword.  perhaps ~~~ could be the token 
for the 
opposite of |||?

I've changed the grammar such that use of "," instead of ";" puts things on the 
same
line.  This applies to both boxes and other arc types, and if used carefully can
create the output you've requested.  See the attached for an example.

This is fixed on trunk and will go into the 0.15 release.
