Consider the following minimal example:
\documentclass{article}
\setlength{\parindent}{0mm}
\usepackage{paralist}
\usepackage{tabto}
\begin{document}
\NumTabs{3}
\begin{inparaenum}
\item text
\tab\item text
\tab\item text
\tab\item text
\tab\item text
\tab\item text
\end{inparaenum}
\end{document}
Which results in:
It does exactly what I want, but I was wondering whether it was possible to create an environment, say tabbedEnum
so that we can eliminate the use of the \tab
, in particular, that the first case doesn't need a tab but all others do. Something of the form:
\begin{tabbedEnum}[3]
\item text
\item text
\item text
\item text
\item text
\item text
\end{tabbedEnum}
Best Answer
Just redefine
\item
to do what you want, but after the first use:Since we are using the original
\item
command at the end, you can also use the optional argument after\item
.
