# In an avm, can the horizontal space between the brackets be set manually?

I've created a simple attribute-value matrix using a custom style file avm.sty which is explained here. However, it is so narrow that the right bracket overlaps with the text.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{avm}
\begin{document}
\begin{avm}
@{0} [ \asort{walk}
agent @{1}\\
path @{2}\\
]
\end{avm}
\end{document}

where does this avm environment come from? –  percusse Jun 20 at 14:13
from the avm.sty package –  LeaRebecca Jun 20 at 14:23
@Sigur: Thanks, I already managed to find out! –  Christian Hupfer Jun 20 at 14:38

@LeaRebecca, your code with that style file does not work here. –  Sigur Jun 20 at 14:42

You are missing some &s to separate the columns. Also you example is missing the \avmoptions{active} for the short input notation:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{avm}
\avmoptions{active}

\begin{document}

\begin{avm}
@{0}
[ \asort{walk}
agent & @{1}\\
path & @{2}\\
]
\end{avm}

\end{document}


See the accompanying avm-doc.pdf file in the zip file at http://nlp.stanford.edu/manning/tex/ for further examples.
