    with independent auto-numbering.
    The styleitems package provides fully independent auto-numbered list
    labels rendered with TikZ. Each label is a live TikZ node, offering

    Rectangle, Diamond, Triangle, Pentagon, Hexagon, Octagon, Star (5-point),
    Star (12-point), Ellipse Callout (left/right), Cloud Callout (left/right),
    and four arrow directions (right, left, up, down).
    Eight numbering styles are supported: arabic, indic (Arabic-Indic digits), alph, Alph, roman, Roman, aralph (Hijai order), and aralphabjad (Abjad order). Each shape is available in both vertical (*List) and inline (*Inline) environments. The package fully supports bidirectional (Arabic/RTL)
    and standard Latin (LTR) typesetting. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
