Howdy,
The tw-latex.txt file, found in ~/Library/TeXworks/completion/ on Mac
but I don't know where on other platforms, can be edited in any UTF-8
text editor so that the output from completion is what you want; just
replace the extra #RET# after the \item.
It's pretty obvious how the commands are structured. Not that many
commands have multiple variations (starred variants, variable number
of option arguments) and the order in the file makes a difference
since the file is searched from top down. Also notice that there are
duplicates with and without leading `\' since that may be needed as a
delimiter.
Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
