 <tt>\setlength{len-cmd}{len}</tt>
<p>

 The <tt>\setlength</tt>  command  is used to set the value of a length command,
 <tt>len-cmd</tt>, which is specified as the first argument.
 The <tt>len</tt>  argument  can be expressed  in any terms  of length  LaTeX
 understands, i.e., inches (in), millimeters (mm), points (pt), etc.
