Index of cases -- Revisited

[Alan L Tyree]

Some clarification:

I realise that my aim wasn't clearly stated:

I am concerned with the write -> send to editor -> rewrite -> send to 
editor cycle. When the editor and I are in agreement with everything, 
convert to Word and send to publisher.

I can get an editor to agree to "plain" text. What I am afraid of is 
that LaTeX will scare the socks off an editor who is accustomed to 
editing legal submissions.

I am hoping to construct something that will be as "plain" as possible 
in the manuscript, then take care of other requirement (Table of cases, 
etc) by some other means.

"Plain" org mode seems to me to be a good choice for the manuscript. Now 
trying to figure out how to add the other requirements without 
cluttering the manuscript.

Thanks for listening, and just tell me if I am too far OT.

Cheers,
Alan

Wikis..

Talk or comment pages separate from document content.

Changes shouldn't be inline but paragraph-oriented (helps with gitting
and diffing). It may happen outside the content flow, say at the tail of
the document (or think an extra sheet)

You can say that the commenter indent his comments with an say tabs, so
that you can do `keep-lines' and `flush-lines' or
`set-selective-display' magic.

Number your paragraphs in the plain text file so that they can be easily
xref-ed.  It could be a little difficult getting used to numbers but it
could be useful.

Being an emacs user, you can always remove the numbers or re-number the
numbers at later in point in time.
