I am familiar with the !}fmt used in vi to reformat a paragraph, but I wondered how, or if it is possible to do more complex formatting. I am thinking specifically of numbering, or creating points. I am familiar with the .AL .LI point 1 .LI point 2 .LE that can be run with "nroff -mm", but I notice that it can not be run successfully with, say "!}nroff -mm" from within vi. Anyone have an idea?
