# Another group of helpers for changing the cursor position are the pad methods.
# They accept a numeric value and a block. <code>pad</code> will use the numeric
# value to move the cursor down both before and after the block content.
# <code>pad_top</code> will only move the cursor before the block while
# <code>pad_bottom</code> will only move after.
#
# <code>float</code> is a method for not changing the cursor. Pass it a block
# and the cursor will remain on the same place when the block returns.
