In most cases I want to write a small (informal) introduction. But then the "theory ... imports ... begin" command looks out of place in the generated document and I hide it using (*<*) (*>*). So having a way to write an abstract / or an informal introduction would be nice. - Johannes _______________________________________________ isabelle-dev mailing list isabelle-...@in.tum.de https://mailmanbroy.informatik.tu-muenchen.de/mailman/listinfo/isabelle-dev
