\documentclass{article} \newenvironment{foo}{==[}{]==} \begin{document} This document contains all sorts of layouts we are supposed to support, along with weird nestings. At time you will see that I use subsubsections in weird places. The intent is just to make sure that I can include a macro-type layout everyzhere it makes sense. A normal paragraph \begin{equation} x = \sin y \end{equation} with maths inside it. \begin{quote} An environment... ... with two paragraphs \end{quote} \begin{foo} an unknown environment \end{foo} \section{A section} \section[Hello!]{A section with optional argument} \begin{quote} An environment \end{quote} \section*{A starred section} \begin{figure} \caption{A figure} \end{figure} A paragraph\footnote{hello} with a footnote and another one\footnote{hello there} with several paragraphs some ERT \vspace{1cm} aa and another paragraph \begin{center} Some centered stuff (does not work) \end{center} \begin{quotation} An environment \subsubsection*{with a command inside it} \end{quotation} \begin{quotation} Another environment \begin{quotation} With another one inside it (with same layout) [this one even has several paragraphs!] \end{quotation} \end{quotation} We can also nest enumerations \begin{enumerate} \item Item1 \begin{enumerate} \item Item1.a \item Item1.b (there is a paragraph break in front of this) \begin{itemize} \item Item1.b.* \item Item1.b.* \end{itemize} \end{enumerate} \item Item2 \end{enumerate} Let's see what happens when normal paragraphs are inserted in lists: \begin{itemize} \item the first item with some explanatory text under it and a second paragraph for good measure \subsubsection*{we can even have one as a subsubsection} \item the second item \item the third item \subsubsection*{and a sssection heading inside it (why not?)} \end{itemize} What else? Well, we have descriptions: \begin{description} \item[A] first item \item[B] second one \end{description} or even bibliography \begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{FOO} Edward Bar. \emph{The Foo Book}. (1999) \end{thebibliography} \end{document}
