+\begin_layout Standard
+The 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout

+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ package introduces a number of new types of lists.
+ Perhaps the most widely used are 
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+inline
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+ lists, which have several features: 
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout InParagraphEnum
+They are set inline within a paragraph;
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout InParagraphEnum
+\begin_inset CommandInset label
+LatexCommand label
+name "enu:Inline2"
+
+\end_inset
+
+But an inline enumeration is still numbered automatically, as a normal enumerati
+on would be;
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout InParagraphEnum
+And yet, the individual items can still be referenced.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+For example, the second item in that list was numbered 
+\begin_inset CommandInset ref
+LatexCommand ref
+reference "enu:Inline2"
+
+\end_inset
+
+.
+ You can also do inline itemize lists and inline descriptions.
+ These are created using the 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+InParagraphItem

+\end_inset

+, 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout

+
+, and 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+InParagraphDescr
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ styles.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+Another new style of list is the paragraph list.
+ Items in these lists are set as ordinary paragraphs.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout AsParagraphItem
+This is the first item.
+ See how it is set as an ordinary paragraph, without any special indentation.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout AsParagraphItem
+This is the second item.
+ It is also set as an ordinary paragraph, and there is no special indentation
+ with it, either.
+ But you do still have a bullet.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout AsParagraphItem
+This is the third item.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+Those items were set with the 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+AsParagraphItem
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ style.
+ Of course, it does not make sense to reference them.
+ But you can do the same thing with enumerations and descriptions.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+There are also 
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+compact
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+ versions of the three standard list styles.
+ 
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout CompactDescr
+One This is the first description item.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout CompactDescr
+Two This is the second description item.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+This one was set with the CompactDescr style.
+ It is just an ordinary description list that has no extra spacing.
+ 
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The 
+\begin_inset Flex Noun
+status open
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+paralist
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ package also provides an optional argument for list items that allows you
+ to control how the labels are formatted.
+ For information on this, and many other features of the package, please
+ see 
+\begin_inset CommandInset href
+LatexCommand href
+name "its documentation on CTAN"
+target "http://dante.ctan.org/CTAN/macros/latex/contrib/paralist/paralist.pdf"
+
+\end_inset
+
+.
+ You might also want to read the warnings about nesting the new list types.
+ It can be done, but it does not always work as you might expect.
