hinst for page break inside a table

[Genady Beryozkin]

Hello,

I have a long table which might need to be split across two pages. I
have seen that there are many environments (supertabular, xtabular,
longtable) but I could not find a way to hint the environment on where
to put the page break.

Is there a way to do it? Or how the packages decide where to put the
page break ?

Thanks in advance,
Genady

longtable, which uses tex's page breaking more-or-less direct by
plugging into the output routine, implements \\* (as a no-break
newline) and also allows \linebreak and \nolinebreak at the start of a
row.

i don't know about the others.
