Re: Prefix lines with a counter

Another solution is to make them all start with "1. " and then use pandoc to tidy them up. Adding the "1. " is easy: `:s/^/1. /`.  I have

   set equalprg=pandoc -t markdown

So if I have something like

   1. item 1

   1. item 2

   1. item 3

and select them all in visual mode (`vip` works for this---maybe that depends on some plugin, not sure) and hit '=' to get a nicely formatted numbered list. A nice feature of this solution, for writing markdown, is that it generalizes. I can quickly clean up blockquotes, quickly transform ATX headers to setext headers, and so on.
