    Hi all,

    Just wanting to tap into some of the wide-ranging knowledge
    available on this list.

    A quick Q for a Latex document layout. I want a single
    column output, but on the right hand side I want a line
    that separates the \marginpar notes from the rest of the
    text. Like this....

          Body Text Body Text Body Text |
          Body Text Body Text Body Text |
          Body Text Body Text Body Text | MarginPar
          Body Text Body Text Body Text |

    I've googled like hell, but I'm not sure exactly what
    I'm looking for. I want it on every page, so a picture
    environment doesn't seem to be an option (but I could be
    wrong). I was thinking maybe an image placed behind the
    text with the line in the correct location, like a
    watermark, and that lead me to find the eso-pic package,
    but I couldn't get it to Compile when I used the
    \AddToPictureShipout command.

    I'm using PDFLatex to compile, on Sarge with a complete
    Tetex install.

    Thanks a lot for your time,

    Byron
