Hi Nicolas

Now I understand that

- 1 :: item 1
[TAB]- item 2

works as expected, when assuming that you don't want the space after
the "-" to change the indentation similar to Emacs Electric C but want
to keep only TAB, C-c and the modified cursor keys to change the
indentation. BTW, were there considerations or discussions about
"electric indentation" for lists (space after the "-")?

So, for what I want to do I have to use

- 1 :: item 1
-[TAB]item 2

Is the following also doing what is expected?

- 1 :: item 1
[TAB]-[TAB][TAB]item 2

Michael
