Good idea. Here's what it looks like now:
1. Levy, S.B. (1964) Isologous interference with ultraviolet and X-ray
irradiated
bacteriophage T2. J. Bacteriol. 87:1330-1338.
2. Levy, S.B. and T. Watanabe (1966) Mepacrine and transfer of R
factor. Lancet 2:1138.
3. Takano, I., S. Sato, S.B. Levy and T. Watanabe (1966) Episomic
resistance factors in
Enterobacteriaceae. 34. The specific effects of the inhibitors of DNA
synthesis on the
transfer of R factor and F factor. Med. Biol. (Tokyo) 73:79-83.
4. Levy, S.B. (1967) Blood safari into Kenya. The New Physician 16:50-54.
5. Levy, S.B., W.T. Fitts and J.B. Leach (1967) Surgical treatment of
diverticular disease of the
colon: Evaluation of an eleven-year period. Annals Surg. 166:947-955.
As you can see, any single citation is broken over several lines as a
result of a line break. I want it to look like this:
1. Levy, S.B. (1964) Isologous interference with ultraviolet and X-ray
irradiated bacteriophage T2. J. Bacteriol. 87:1330-1338.
2. Levy, S.B. and T. Watanabe (1966) Mepacrine and transfer of R
factor. Lancet 2:1138.
3. Takano, I., S. Sato, S.B. Levy and T. Watanabe (1966) Episomic
resistance factors in Enterobacteriaceae. 34. The specific effects
of the inhibitors of DNA synthesis on the
transfer of R factor and F factor. Med. Biol. (Tokyo) 73:79-83.
4. Levy, S.B. (1967) Blood safari into Kenya. The New Physician
16:50-54.
5. Levy, S.B., W.T. Fitts and J.B. Leach (1967) Surgical treatment of
diverticular disease of the colon: Evaluation of an eleven-year
period. Annals Surg. 166:947-955.
Now, since this is pasted, it might not even look good to you. But in
the second example, the numbers are meant to be bullets and so the
indentation would happen automatically (in Word). But for now they are
just typed.
