You can make any level heading unnumbered in LaTeX by adding a "*" to the section command, without affecting other headings on the same level. You can also specify a different entry to appear in the TOC than in the document — albeit the purpose is to have a short form of the heading in the TOC and the full heading in the document, you can actually specify two totally different strings. > It seems to me, that an unnumbered heading is a mnemonic(?) for creating > a paragraph (albeit a short one) that is styled very much like a > heading. No, LaTeX has \paragraph for that. LaTeX concerns itself with the document structure, it has styles to take care about the formatting. > When one looks at a printed document, one doesn't really know > what mechanism were used to achieve a particular typesetting effect and > there could be multiple mechanisms by which the same effect could be > achieved. The point of LaTeX is that you don't manually muck with the formatting at all. If it looks like a heading, then it was a heading and not a paragraph that's been formatted like a heading.
