1 Summary
The package defines an outline environment, which provides facilities similar to enumerate, but up to 6 levels deep.
2 Description
Create six-level list environment {outline} for making outlines; mark each outline topic with \item. Use of label/ref sequences provided. A direct hack of the enumerate code from latex.tex (added more depth and outline style numbering). Use as you would use the enumerate environment.
