Format Unordered and Ordered Lists for Printing

### Description

Formats the unordered and ordered lists for printing.

### Usage

    formatUL(x, label = "*", offset = 0, width = 0.9 * getOption("width"))
    formatOL(x, type = "arabic", offset = 0, start = 1,
        width = 0.9 * getOption("width"))

### Arguments

x | a vector of character strings to format.
label | a character string or a vector of character strings given to formatUL: the tags for the formatted strings. formatOL generates labels.
offset | a positive integer. All output lines start with at least offset spaces. ('At least' because the labels are right-justified.)
start | a positive integer telling formatOL where to start generating labels. For example, start=4 means the first label is "4.", "d.", or "iv.", depending on the value of type.
width | A positive integer. Line breaks are inserted so that when the output is printed with cat(sep="\n", output), no line is longer than width characters.
type | a character string giving the type of label for formatOL to generate. Must be one of "arabic" (Arabic numerals), "Alph" or "alph" (English letters), or "Roman" or "roman" (Roman numerals), or their respective codes, "1", "A", "a", "I", or "i". If type starts with a capital letter, the label is capitalized.

Value
returns a vector of character strings that you can print with cat(sep="\n",value) to produce an attractive labelled list of strings.
