[Tugindia] new environment

[Badri T Natarajan]

Radhakrishnan Sir,

Thank you once again for the code for the \begin{exhibit}....\end{exhibit} environment that you provided
in response to my first mail. 

Though the exhibits appear without error, the code is causing an error with the numbering of the exhibits and tables (floats?). I have \label{exhibit1} inside the exhibit environment. In the text I say "See Exhibit \ref {exhibit1}". In the output I get "See Exhibit 1". However subsequent references are all numbered incorrectly. 

Best Regards,
Badri

\makeatletter
\newcounter{exhibit}
\renewcommand\theexhibit{\@arabic\c at exhibit}
\def\fps at exhibit{tbp}
\def\ftype at exhibit{1}
\def\ext at exhibit{loe}
\def\exhibitname{Exhibit}
\def\fnum at exhibit{\exhibitname\nobreakspace\theexhibit}
\newenvironment{exhibit}
               {\@float{exhibit}}
               {\end at float}

\def\listexhibitname{List of Exhibits}
\newcommand\listofexhibits{%
    \section*{\listexhibitname}%
      \@mkboth{\listexhibitname}%
         {\listexhibitname}%
    \@starttoc{loe}%
    }
\makeatother


This would achieve what you needed. \listofexhibits would give you a
list like \listoffigures.

Best

Radhakrishnan
