I'm ready to open this one for a vote. :-) Well, the itemize environment can create any kind of list, but you'll have to number the items manually... ;) How about enum()? That's short, and sort of in the traditoin of iter()... Can either be interpreted as a noun, an adjective, or a verb... > --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) -- Magnus Lie Hetland The Anygui Project http://hetland.org http://anygui.org
