Before a counter can be used, it must be created with the macro NEWCOUNTER. This macro expects one parameter list: the name of the counter. The initial value of the counter is set to zero. As for an example, let's say that our macro package should provide two sectioning commands: section and subsection. The sections should be numbered 1, 2, etc., and the subsections 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc.. Hence we'd need two counters:
NEWCOUNTER(sectcounter)
NEWCOUNTER(subsectcounter)
