Yes. This has been renamed, as the old name "List/TOC" was not adequate (it didn't cover "References", and TOC is too cryptic). > Looking at the items in the submenu, I feel three of them (index, > nomenclature and bibliography) could helpfully be reassigned to a > separate item in the Insert menu, tentatively called "End matter". > Although the items in "End matter" are not always placed there, I > think that is generally the case, whereas lists of tables and figures > etc. are usually placed at the front. I don't think this is a very good category name. Also I think that these are all sorts of "lists" that can be grouped together. In German, we have the general term "Verzeichnisse" which perfectly fits them all (TOC is "Inhaltsverzeichnis", Bibliography "Literaturverzeichnis", List of Figure "Abbildungsverzeichnis", Index "Stichwortverzeichnis"). It is too bad that English (apparently due to some historical contingencies) distinguishes "lists", "tables" etc. So we need this rather crude entry for English. However, I do not think that we should structure the menu based on English semantics. Jürgen
