So I have some script that runs in Jenkins from GitLab that will pull 
multiple .md's together into one .docx. Pandoc will automatically create a 
table of contents. I know this because I can enable the navigation pane and 
see all the headers. If I don't run the --toc then I have to manually 
insert a table of contents and it appears. If I add the --toc it will 
appear automatically after I enable features.[image: toc1.JPG]
