Sorry for the bad wording. I really admire your work and didn't mean to underestimate your kind efforts. I'm aware of the numbered example list , the thing is if I want to use 2 lists, I intuitively give them different identifiers e.g '(@foo1)' and '(@foo2)'. However, they are parsed as a single list. I still can't make make multiple different lists, it's a single list throughout the document. Please enumerate us, is it possible to have more than a single list of this type in a single document? If yes, is the suggested syntax applicable? On Wednesday, December 29, 2021 at 9:36:18 PM UTC+2 John MacFarlane wrote: > Hossam Ghorab writes: > > > Thanks for sharing your idea.
