General ⇒ Flexible document structure

[T303]

Hi
this is my first post in the forum so please forgive me if i am posting in the wrong section
My question is a bit hard to explain but i will try... Is there a way to have the structure a latex document more flexible in the following way:

Code: Select all

\chapter{This is a chapter}
\NewStructure{This should go one below} \label{OneBelow}
\NewStructure{This should go one below}
\NewStrucutre{This should go at the same level as {OneBelow}} 

In a report this would result in
Chapter
Section
Subsection
Section

The reason why i would like to do this is because I use \input{} to distribute my quite big document on several files. However, as I am not fully decided on the structure it can be tedious to change e.g. a chapter into a section. In the above example this should be possible by just changing in the first line chapter to section to end up with
Section
Subsection
Subsubsection
Subsection


Thanks in advance

Hi T303,

Welcome to the LaTeX community.

You may be interested in the coseoul package: »The pack­age pro­vides “rel­a­tive” com­mands that may be used in place of \chap­ter, \sec­tion, etc.«
