I've just been experimenting with different formatting methods for the
FAQ which I'm working on, and so far I quite like Texinfo for formatting
it, but with one drawback: it doesn't number sections in plain text output.

Anyone know any good ways to do this?

Anyone have an example of a FAQ formatted with texinfo?

(I've considered other formats, like linuxdoc or raw HTML, but I don't
like their handling of special characters like '<' and '&'. This is the
new comp.unix.programmer FAQ, so it has a lot of C code examples; I find
Texinfo's @{ and @} less painful than having < and & all over the
place. I mainly want plain text and HTML output, produced from a single
source document.)
