And when rendered, could you imagine it being a "marginal note" via LaTeX and In what ways do you intend this to be different than a footnote (which is (Was that a meta-example at the end?) Thanks, On 01/31/2015 05:36 PM, kcrisman wrote:

No meta-examples. Basically, I just want do something David would say is bad - to be able to have Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Comment you can fry fish for supper tonight Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Main content main content Note the bold. But as I say, having a remark one could leave unnumbered (while others might perhaps be unnumbered) and perhaps renamed would be fine too. I don't know about marginal notes, I've never tried those. However, maybe that's what this could do, certainly I've seen them in calc books (e.g. 'historical comment'). What I personally want is just to be able to do bold something-or-other that is highlighted but then also styleable as "not the normal flow, but too important to be a footnote". If I can get that with an unnumbered remark I can rename as comment, great. Your idea about a comment in the margins sounds good too, it's just not the thing I was thinking of. Basically, allowing some items to be dropped from the numbering hierarchy at will (perhaps |
I have found that some people use the comment environment in LaTeX in the sense of a This surprised me, and led to some weird output of SL2X. But we need to be aware that Since "remark" is pretty similar to "comment" in the context of this thread, I have one suggestion My suggestion, which I think is the same as what is suggested at the end of the previous My question, which also may be a point form the previous comment, is to what extent we should |
This is basically what I was suggesting, only much better formulated. I'll open a new thing for the unnumbered, and leave this for the overriding. |
This became the "override-the-name" issue. You can now do that globally. See 31a2bdd and upcoming support post. In particular, yu could turn every "Remark" into a "Comment" (though then you would not be abl to have any remarks anymore). Optional no-number is part of a larger project latr. |
Nice! But what about a once-off renaming? Or is that just too far outside the design philosophy? E.g. suppose one uses all possible tags, and still wants Proposition 5.2 Stuff Proposition 5.3 Stuff Wacky Out of Control Fact (5.4?) lots of detail Proposition 5.4 (or possibly 5.5) |
Definitely way, way, way too far outside design philosophy. Any semblance of meaning or consistency is lost, so you might as well just use I will be adding "problem" and "question" so I expect there will almost-always What I already implemented is outside design philosophy.

Or, I suppose, one could hand-edit the source files. Too bad, as I really enjoy reading papers and books that have things like "Main Lemma". It makes it easier to follow when something is unusual. And how does FCLA fit into this, with its very nonstandard "numbering", anyway? |
Do you think the following would be abused?

I am sure it will be abused, but so will any other customizable feature. Abuse of this is for editors to say "whoa there". It sounds, then, like FCLA is a perfect example of that! But my point is that at least for certain things it should be made easier than having the customization layer, and if you have various dire warnings of eternal doom in the example demonstrating this and pointing to guidelines for authors, we should survive. |
As requested in #21, I am asking for a
<comment>
tag. In this case, it should not be something numbered - that would be a<remark>
. Ideally it could be marked up in some way with a custom style sheet. Comments are just asides that need to be clearly marked as asides; that is not really possible in the usual<p>
format, as parentheses around a paragraph is not a strong indication.(Alternately, one could have a switch on various things allowing them to not be numbered; an unnumbered remark is a comment, in my current thinking, though probably not universally.)
