The files are coded 'readonly' so I had to change this first.

that's it: I have to comment out all occurences starting with bit or \bit

a typo ;-)

now things work _nearly_ als expected, the expanded text is:

\begin{itemize}
\item \end{itemize}
 •

Could it be solved that:

- \end{itemize} goes into the next line but
- no empty line is produced?

I mean

\begin{itemize}
\item
\end{itemize}
 •

and the cursor is placed behind item?

TIA
Andreas
