Aligned descriptions

Hi all,

I am having great time using TeXmacs and customizing it. But I have yet to find a way to align the labels of \description to the dot. For example, I am looking for this effect:

image

Rather than currently,

image

Any help will be greatly appreciated! I don’t mind creating a new style file if that’s required.

This is a bit tricky as far as I remember. I had to code some macro for similar effect in the style file for a CV here: https://github.com/texmacs/tm-forge/tree/main/examples/kjh-vita for the CV sections. you might give a look how I did (I do not remember) and hopefully will give you what you want. The point is that the left margin of the text is at the level of the “.” so you have to extrude te descriptions on the left, this is what my macros do.
