@cgnieder LOL

@PauloCereda :)

@HarishKumar: how are feeling now, Harish?

@Speravir Ok, the result is somewhere in between ;-)

@StephanLehmke Aha!?

Indeed splitting the longtable works, which surprises me, but it starts to fail as soon as anything special (like \endhead) is used.

@StephanLehmke Ah!

First I had assumed that scrlayer-notecolumn is indeed "forking" the output routine to simulate multiple independent "page environments" for different layers, as I had imagined for something I'm still trying to put together.

But they are "only" using \vsplit to split the note column, which is quite sufficient in itself; I was just suprised it works with a plain vanilla longtable without somehow tweaking the output routine... Apparently @DavidCarlisle knew what he was doing ;-)

Next they'll be telling me longtable even works in mdframed ;-)

@StephanLehmke For multicol David set longtable into a box: tex.stackexchange.com/a/46001/9237

@StephanLehmke Spooky, isn't it? :)

I can't wait to see David and Robin sharing a keynote. :)

@Speravir Yea that's probably the answer. As longtable is in a box as well in the note column, it's behaving differently.

@Speravir only to defeat my own error check code that would otherwise say you shouldn't be using longtable in multicols:-)

Anyway, I upvoted the answer by @KeksDose :-)

Also, I should say loud and clear that scrlayer is a very promising package I expect to hear about a lot in the near future :-)

meanwhile @egreg's answering tabu questions:-)

@StephanLehmke I just was going to say, that I did already, but no I had forgotten, I’m the third now. :-)

@DavidCarlisle We speak bad about longtable, as usual. ;-)

@Speravir I only come here for the cricket news, I ignore all your chat about TeX

Though for me it's a bit like TikZ: The interface is so sophisticated I'll probably never get around learning to use it. On top of that, doing something with \vsplit is so much fun I wouldn't let an opportunity to use it slip :-)

@Speravir I've been praising it, actually.

@StephanLehmke These were my words … :-P

@StephanLehmke You know too much. I do not know, what to do with a \vsplit.

VW Kombi is gone. :(

@PauloCereda Hi Paulo Good Morning from here. Thanks, Fever gone but headache is still on. It may take some time for it to go looking at history :)

@HarishKumar :)

@MarcoDaniel: get one of this, quick: vw.com.br/pt/carros/Kombi/last-edition.html

As German, you need to have one. :)

@PauloCereda Ah, this is more famous as Bulli in Germany. Since I know you can fluently read German ;-) see VW-Bus – Wikipedia.

@Speravir Oh my! :) 56 years of Brazil. VW released a retirement ad, it's very cute. And apparently this little rascal will live in Rio. :)

@egreg Oopsie, Psmith had crashed in the morning, I need to fix some symbolic links. :(

@PauloCereda I hope he didn't break his leg.

@egreg He's safe. :)

@PauloCereda First Harish, then Tomáš, now Psmith: epidemy.

@egreg We need to watch out. :)

A bug found in one of David's packages. Something fishy is going on.

I just was trying oneboxing in the sandbox, but why should I withhold it from you?

@PauloCereda s/bug/interesting feature/g

@DavidCarlisle oopsie. :)

@Speravir Also this one is interesting

@egreg Aah, I had to think about it … Should try out braille.
