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! kynn -- NOTE: In my address everything before the first period is backwards; and the last period, and everything after it, should be discarded.
