Typographical shortcuts 

To enhance the text presentation

The lists

Lists are used for enumerations.Pay attention: a block of bullets has to be surrounded by a blank line before and after.

Bullet lists:

-* first line-* second line-** second level bullet list

-* return to initial level

This will display as:• first line• second line

o second level bullet list• return to initial level

Numbered lists:

-# first line-# second line-## second level bullet list 1-### third level bullet list 1-### third level bullet list 2-## second level bullet list 2-# return to initial level

This will display as:1. first line2. second line
