Plain TeX does not allow you to do "high" lebel stuff like that. But the
LaTeX macro package does. It also numbers your references automatically
(if you set it up that way) so when you insert/delete a reference, you don't
have to manually re-number; I think this is also done with troff but I am not
sure. ... it is hard to learn troff once you become a 0.5-TeXpert (8-)
