[Orgmode] Re: Change line spacing for lists for LaTeX export

[Alan E. Davis]

I can see now that the LaTeX source for my outline is not in list form, but in sections.   When I reformat to use list notation in org, the following do not change anything in the pdf that is output.  Interestingly, when I export LaTeX into a buffer latex then complains about too many nested levels, while the pdf is exported ok.

Perhaps there is another length parameter I can change to make the outlines based on sectioning more compact.

I need to print outlines in a more compact form than LaTeX lists ordinarily provide.  I often have used the paralist package, although it conflicts with some other packages.  How can I alter the line spacing for the lists directly, for export?

I found this suggestion, and I was going to use #+LATEX_HEADER:, but then it occured to me that I don't have a way to specifiy that "my_enumerate" would be used instead of "enumerate".

This is the code I found on line:

%
% this makes list spacing much better.
%
\newenvironment{my_enumerate}{
\begin{enumerate}
  \setlength{\itemsep}{1pt}
  \setlength{\parskip}{0pt}
  \setlength{\parsep}{0pt}}{\end{enumerate}



}

Thank you for any suggestions.
