Re: Output looks different in PDF / HTML

Hi Petra,

@itemize takes an argument specifying the item marker to use.  That always
defaults to a bullet in TeX, Info, etc., regardless of nesting. In the
nested list, you need to explicitly say
@itemize @minus
(or whatever marker you want).

Here is the section in the manual that talks about it:
http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/_0040itemize.html

It would certainly be reasonable for default marker to change with each
nested list, but the current behavior has been the case since the
beginning of Texinfo, so I'm loath to change it now.

Best,
Karl
