Subject: Prioritized lists in Emacs?
Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 15:51:29 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <g93t61$e4j$1@reader1.panix.com> (raw)



I'm looking for Emacs support for prioritized (aka numbered) lists.
E.g.

  1) Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
     Maecenas erat. Nulla eu dolor id nisl rutrum cursus.

  2) Cras vel dui. Etiam placerat. Aenean ut felis vel sapien
     tincidunt consectetuer. Proin a sapien id velit consequat
     vulputate. Maecenas dignissim est.

  3) Suspendisse pellentesque lorem sed elit. Aenean eleifend dapibus
     lectus.

Ideally, I'd like for support of "re-numbering" and "insertions".  By
this I mean that if one modifies the above to something like

  3) Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
     Maecenas erat. Nulla eu dolor id nisl rutrum cursus.

  1) Cras vel dui. Etiam placerat. Aenean ut felis vel sapien
     tincidunt consectetuer. Proin a sapien id velit consequat
     vulputate. Maecenas dignissim est.

  2) Suspendisse pellentesque lorem sed elit. Aenean eleifend dapibus
     lectus.

  1.1) Vivamus nisi. Praesent iaculis.  Vestibulum facilisis metus
       ut nibh.

...then with a simple command one would be able to reorder the entries
to

  1) Cras vel dui. Etiam placerat. Aenean ut felis vel sapien
     tincidunt consectetuer. Proin a sapien id velit consequat
     vulputate. Maecenas dignissim est.

  1.1) Vivamus nisi. Praesent iaculis.  Vestibulum facilisis metus
       ut nibh.

  2) Suspendisse pellentesque lorem sed elit. Aenean eleifend dapibus
     lectus.

  3) Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
     Maecenas erat. Nulla eu dolor id nisl rutrum cursus.

...or even to

  1) Cras vel dui. Etiam placerat. Aenean ut felis vel sapien
     tincidunt consectetuer. Proin a sapien id velit consequat
     vulputate. Maecenas dignissim est.

  2) Vivamus nisi. Praesent iaculis.  Vestibulum facilisis metus ut
     nibh.

  3) Suspendisse pellentesque lorem sed elit. Aenean eleifend dapibus
     lectus.

  4) Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
     Maecenas erat. Nulla eu dolor id nisl rutrum cursus.


Is there support for this sort of thing in Emacs (possibly via some
additional module)?

TIA!
