I apologize for this, which is really an amstex or latex question. I recall once seeing an answer (somewhere) and can’t find it now.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In the amsarticle document style as presently constituted, when you start a list with </div>
<div>\begin{enumerate}</div>
<div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"></span>\item…</div>
<div>the numer of the (first) item gets printed as "(1)"; it used to print as “1.”. </div>
<div>The former, “(1)”, drives me crazy. The latter, “1.”, is what all the “tutorials” online assume happens.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think I once saw a way to change this back by putting an option into the </div>
<div>document style, or perhaps via some other universal command, but can’t find it now. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I tried a local command, that is, beginning my environment with</div>
<div>\begin{enumerate}[label=\arabic*.]</div>
<div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>(1) Try with the style:<br>\usepackage{enumerate}<br>and then for a list:<br><br>\begin{enumerate}[1.]<br>\item ...<br>\end{enumerate}<br><br>(2) In addition, your attempt for<br>\begin{enumerate}[label=\arabic*.]<br> should work with:<br>\usepackage{enumitem}<br><br>(3) You can get the enumeration mode "1." with {enumitem} by adding the option:<br><br>\usepackage[shortlabels]{enumitem}<br><br>and then in the list:<br>\begin{enumerate}[1.]<br> <br>But I do not know whether \documentclass{amsart} is OK together with the styles:<br>enumerate.sty<span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> and</span> enumitem.sty</div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I've been using the three ways (1)-(3) quite a lot with several \documentclass, but not with {amsart}.</span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Let us know, whether the above works with {amsart}.

<div>l.73 \begin{enumerate}[label=\arabic*.]</div>

<div>So how do I restore the old way with a single universal command in the preamble, so I don’t have to change things every time I use the enumerate environment?</div>
