Thanks to all.

I don't think it can be classified as "resolved". It's a good way to show optional arguments (which I appreciate), but there is a lot missing from the "solution".

\refstepcounter{subsubsubsection} to step the counter?
\addtocontents{toc}{#1} to add the table of contents?
hanging numbering?
\newcommand\thesubsubsubsection{\thesubsubsection.\@arabic\c@subsubsubsection} to define the referencing?

It's just odd that you can take the same definition for the subsection, change "subsection" to "subsubsubsection" and all of a sudden it repeats.

You can use titleclass out of the titlesec package, but I've noticed that it jacks up the table of contents and I don't know how to fix it...got another thread going on that one.

So bottom line, I have no answers, just gripes.

Note that this just mimics the definition of \section in book.cls. But then I got the repeating title.

Looking at latex.ltx finally revealed that the problem was that no \postsectionmark command had been defined. So when we hit:

Code: Select all

    \csname #1mark\endcsname{#7}
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

in \@sect, what happens is that #7 (the optional argument, automatically generated by \@dblarg) gets printed by itself. So the solution was:

Code: Select all

\newcommand*\postsectionmark{\sectionmark}
