New Members ⇒ Enumeration Counter with intervening Text

[aralluna9]

I'd like to have certain items enumerated continuously throughout a monograph. I can achieve this as follows:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{enumerate}
\begin{enumerate}
\setcounter{enumi}{+1}
  \item
\end{enumerate}

But, when I have intervening text, lists, chapters, etc., I have to set the counter manually each time. Ideally, I need a command in the preamble that sets the counter variable and increments it when called by each relevant enumeration. Does code for doing this exist?

I'm not sure if I understand you right. But probably you are looking for the enumitem package which adds among other things the resume option to the {enumerate} environment. The package manual has the details.
