title: automated line breaks in LaTeX tables
body: <p>In my dissertation, I have a glossary that explains some abbreviations I use. I put this in a table to make it look nicer. However, LaTeX does not break lines at the end of the page.</p>
  
  <p>I know that I could force a line break at any point in the table, but it is a long table (much work!) and manual line breaks make the text look jagged and ugly. Is there a nice way to either have a nice-looking glossary or make LaTeX break lines automatically in a table?</p>
  
  <p>...if LaTeX wouldn't do these things every so often I would really love it. The way it is, I constantly switch between affection and anger...</p>
