Hello Meine,

Thank you for your participation.

I am a user of both i) Pandoc to generate HTML (markdown + yaml
headers) and ii) {Xe,Lua}TeX to generate PDF.

What I was aiming to have and what lead to my initial post was to have
"clean" plain text files correctly indented with numbered lists.

So Gary's solution is the way to go for me.

Cordially,
