LaTeX style sections

The section-latex d.t.d. provides the standard tags for sections, which are the same as in LaTeX. Most sectional tags take only one argument: the name of the section. In the future, we plan to provide alternative tags with two arguments, which will allow you to see the body of a section as part of the structure. The following tags usually yield numbered sections, which are referenced in the table of contents:

chapter

Macro for producing a potentially numbered chapter title.

section

Macro for producing a potentially numbered section title.

subsection

Macro for producing a potentially numbered subsection title.

subsubsection

Macro for producing a potentially numbered subsubsection title.

paragraph

Macro for producing a potentially numbered paragraph title.

subparagraph

Macro for producing a potentially numbered subparagraph title.

The tags chapter*, section*, subsection*, subsubsection*, paragraph* and subparagraph* can be used for producing the unnumbered variants of the above tags, which are not referenced in the table of contents. The section-latex d.t.d. also provides the following tags:

chapter**

Macro with two arguments: a special type of chapter (like “Epilogue”) and the name of the chapter.

appendix

A variant of chapter or section for producing appendices.

sectionsep

A macro for customizing the separator between the number of a section and its title. By default, we use two spaces.
