Nope retyping from scratch. But reality is reality, if you want some copying and pasting (it's not cutting and pasting because nothing is being deleted, sorry software industry pet peave, 99% of time when people say "cutting and pasting" what's really happening is copying and pasting no cutting, and it really irritates me when people fog up the difference between CTRL-C and CTRL-X) here's some from the dictionary:
a table or list of topics in a book, showing their order and the place where they may be found: a summary.
a list of divisions (chapters or articles) and the pages on which they start.

You see plainly how the table of contents are not the whole, but merely a representation and guide to the whole, not a substitute but merely a map.

retyping from scratch

When it looks merely cut n paste? Last word, then?
