I see them once I get to a chapter or section but not on the menus. So the
numbers are a bit like navigating using GPS without a grid reference for
the destination - it tells you exactly where you are when you get there.

you gave the command. Only a few characters are usually necessary to 
resolve ambiguities.

I don't want to sound negative. Just trying to be helpful. You are doing
