Automatic chapter numbering

cengels opened this issue · 1 comments

A convenience function which automatically generates a new chapter heading, automatically deriving its number from the previous chapter's number (optionally written out in text form).

Too complex. Writing out a chapter title and number manually requires only three key presses (new line and CTRL+[1-6]) followed by, at most, two words. By comparison, generating such a title would need a concrete mapping of each unique number in the language along with rules on how to combine them (25 = twenty + five) on a per language basis. The potential convenience of such a function simply does not make up for the immense amount of code necessary to make it happen.
