<P> Most people who use the <TT>enumerate</TT> environment to produce a syllabus or other long nested lists of short items are dismayed by the amount of space between the items. The <TT>outline</TT> environment, which is essentially the same as <TT>enumerate</TT>, suppresses some of this space. It leaves space, however, at the beginning and end of a list, but not a sublist. For example <BR> <IMG STYLE="" SRC="img1.png" ALT="
\begin{outline} \item Rome and Carthage \begin{outline}\item The first Punic wa.... .....\it Carthago delenda est \end{outline}\item Rome in the Adriatic \end{outline}
"> <BR> You should use the <TT>outline</TT> environment sparingly. For most purposes, even for a list of a few short items, the <TT>enumerate</TT> environment produces more pleasing results.
