%% Allows for a leading character on the enumi ... enumiv labels.  Default
%%  character (\leadchar) is $\ast$, but may easily be changed on the first 
%%  line of the code, in the preamble of the LaTeX document (using \def),
%%  or in the body of the LaTeX document (using \renewcommand).  Instead of 
%%  \item in the enumerate environment, use \itemn for normal enumeration and 
%%  \items for special character enumeration, as these switch between the 
%%  enumeration labels (NOTE: \item may be used, but once \items is invoked,
%%  enumi ... enumiv are globally redefined, until reset using \itemn.)
