How would you code a .org file to produce this sort of html page, which
contains items that look like numbered list elements?

http://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/v1ch2s1.html

In that page, a number at the beginning of a line indicates a paragraph
in the original work, so the exported html page needs to respect those
numbers.

Currently, org seems to assume that these are elements of a numbered
list, and renumbers the lines sequentially starting at 1.

Thanks -

bw

Here's one solution: write the paragraph numbers as =4.=, =5.=, etc.

Cheers -

bw, who sometimes has to ask the question in order to answer it

You can tell Org that only 1) and not 1. should start a list:

(setq org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator ?\))

Very nice!  You even mentioned this problem in the docstring for the
variable.

Many thanks -
