Ordered lists broken into columns restart numbering

Is there any way to break a long ordered list into columns and still 
retain the same numbering?

Thanks,
   Gary

Hi Gary,

there's a multi-column style [#1] that can be combined with some in-place
css magic to achieve that:

%%add-css
.columns {
  counter-reset: mycounter
}
.columns ol {
  list-style: none;
}
.columns ol li:before {
  counter-increment: mycounter;
  content: counter(mycounter) ". ";
}
/%

#qwe
#qwe

%%columns
#asd
#asd
----
#asd
#asd
----
#asd
#asd
/%

#zxc
#zxc
#zxc

should retain numbering inside the columns, but not for the other numbered
lists (qwe and zxc should begin at 1, whereas asd lists on second and third
column should begin at 3 and 5). Each %%column section should begin at 1
too.

HTH,
juan pablo
