[texhax] The visual effect of optional settings in inline lists

[Susan Dittmar]

Dear Paul,

in addition to what Rolf Turner already wrote:

I'm no typographer, so this is just personal opinion. I would use
parentheses at this point, as it helps distinguishing the ``numerals'' from
the rest of the text. I'd do it as

\begin{inparaenum}[\itshape (a)]

Hope that helps,

	Susan
