Oops.  That was supposed to be "delete", not "send".  I eventually figured out 
where my confusion lay:
  the doc says "choose Enumerate from the Environment box (...)'  Pow!"

The parenthetical is an icon of the "enumerate" list; I took that to mean that 
I should choose from whatever showed up when clicking that icon in the toolbar 
(which was unrelated to list environment types).  In fact, it's the icon *for* 
the Environment box (which is itself a drop-down menu).

I tend to be a literalist, which makes reading documentation a bit of a trial 
for me :-}

So, no harm, no foul.

Thanks for alerting me to the fact that I "sent" the email.

Justin
