> what do you think, where the name _mini_pages comes from?

Okay so it's supposed to be "mini".. but it doesn't naturally imply that
a half-page, for example, can't start at 3/4th (from the top) of one
page  and end at 1/4th of the next right? Anyways, I understand that's
how Latex does it but maybe sometime in the future LyX could try to
allow the option of wrapping across pages.. 

The reason why I wanted to find out if I could do this is cos of the
previous problem I had with nesting.. you'd replied:

> start the description line as usual and then insert a minipage
> with a vertical alignment of "top". In the minipage write your

So I did that but my itemize environment was too long to fit on a
page... so now I have a lot of empty space on one page and the minipage
starts on the next... I can send you an example file if you'd like to
take a look..

Thanks for the help..
