[OS X TeX] vertical space in enumeration

This is what I've been using.

Insert this in your \newcommand area:

\newskip\csep
\newskip\csepb
\csep=-1.0\medskipamount
\csepb=-0.6\medskipamount
\newcommand{\Enumerate}{\par\partopsep=\csep\begin{enumerate}[\quad\; 
\upshape (a)]\itemsep=\csepb}

Then in the document body, it will read:

\Enumerate
\item ...
\item ...
\item ...
\end{enumerate}

You'll have to experiment with the values of \csep and \csepb to get  
spacing that you desire. This is close to the AMS \enumerate  
environment. The \quad\; gives me the indentation that I like.
