Oooh, nice! : Start line with a number, but don't make numbered list

Oooh, nice! : Start line with a number, but don't make numbered list

[John Gabriele]

Just discovered this: I wanted to start some lines with numbers, just like a numbered list, but didn't want them indented / rendered as a list. That is, I wanted to "manually make paragraphs look like non-indented numbered list items". I discovered that this works:

~~~
1.\ This is a regular line.

1.a.\ This is too.

$$a=bc$$

2.\ As is this.
~~~

(where the backslash then space gets you an unbreakable space).

Not sure this is explicitly intended, but it's very handy, and I think pretty excellent. :)

You can also do

1\. This is a regular line.

Escaping the punctuation character rather than the space is  usually
preferable since the escaped space comes out as a no-break space while an
escaped punctuation doesn't affect spacing.
