Hi, 

Is it possible to define a new list using enumitem whose counter doesn't 
get reset?  I know about the [resume] argument, but I'd like to just 
create a list that wouldn't require the use of [resume], but whose 
counter never resets.

just adding resume to your \setlist-statement should do the trick.

%--8<--
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\newlist{foo}{enumerate}{1}
\setlist[foo]{resume,label=3D\arabic*)}
\begin{document}
\begin{foo}
\item one-one
\item one-two
\end{foo}
some text
\begin{foo}
\item two-one
\item two-two
\end{foo}
\end{document}

Thanks.  So simple, and obvious.  I guess I just assumed that [resume] 
wouldn't work as part of the list definition.  I should have tried it.

Thanks again.
