CTAN has a new package: outlines

A new package has appeared on tug.ctan.org and should spread to your favorite mirror within a day or two. Thanks for the contribution, Jim Hefferon ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: outlines Author's name: Charles Pecheur Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/outlines Summary description: An environment for outline-style indented lists with freely mixed levels. License type: pd Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The "outlines" package - - ---------------------- Charles Pecheur, March 25, 2005 The "outlines" package defines the "outline" environment, that allows outline-style indented lists with freely mixed levels up to four levels deep. It replaces the nested "begin"/"end" pairs by different item tags "\1" to "\4" for each nesting level. This is very convenient in cases where nested lists are used a lot, such as for to-do lists or presentation slides. This package is built on top of the standard list environments and has no specific pre-requisite. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive//macros/latex/contrib although you may get a better network connection by visiting a mirror of CTAN that is near to you; see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/README.mirrors .
