Those constructs can be used in any item of the list in order to enforce a particular numbering. I think I'm not understanding somehting though, as if I try this: [@13]. thirteenth item org doesn't seem to recognize the line as a list item. I'm running a pretty recent org 7.8.11 from git. I'm sure I'm just reading the manual wrong -- any hints? thanks Matt --001636eeff185aae1504c6c53987 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi,
