Margin texts
It was essential for Hasselt to have a bridge across the river Zwarte
Water. The bishop of Utrecht gave Hasselt his consent in 1486.
Other cities in the neighbourhood of Hasselt were afraid of the toll
money to be paid when crossing this bridge so they prevented the
construction.

19 Margin texts
It is very easy to put text in the margin. You just use \inmargin.
\inmargin[.1.][ref]{.2.}
You may remember one of the earlier examples:
\inmarge
{\externalfigure
[hass23g]
[width=\marginwidth]}
This would result in a figure in the margin. You can imagine that it looks quite nice in
some documents. But be careful. The margin is rather small so the figure could become
very marginal.
A few other examples are shown in the text below.
