I realize there was a mistake in the reply I just sent, which has not yet been published.

When I fixed that, the two sections became one chapter (one h1 and one subhead) and there was a skip in numbers before and after the chapter. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-users" group.
