Procedure lists are a specialized orderedlist used for listing step-by-step procedures like you would find in a recipe or Linux HowTo.
Example 3.7. A procedure list
<procedure> <title>Waking Up</title> <para>This is what you must do to awaken.</para> <step performance="required"> <para> Bring yourself to a hypnopompic state, either from an ongoing dream or by use of your internal clock. You may feel unable to move, but you will no longer be dreaming. </para> <para>Now you are ready for real-world readjustment.</para> <substeps> <step performance="optional"> <para>Roll over.</para> </step> <step performance="required"> <para>Squint out of one eye.</para> </step> </substeps> </step> <step performance="required"> <para>Yawn and rise from your bed. </para> </step> </procedure>
The above example would look something like this when converted:
Procedure 3.1. Waking Up
