The formatting will be corrected, _and_ the enumeration becomes continous too. Any advices?? Also try help-userguide. Search for the word nesting, and you will find a large-scale example.

Thank you for deep desription. Fleeting glance I looked at it, for more I don't have time currenlty. I promised myself to read new guide by Uwe but it lies and waits.
