I need to use the description environment in such a way that I don't have to write alternating labels over and over again (as shown in the example below). Is there any way that these labels become automatic? It will save a lot of time and hassle. Thanks.
\begin{description}
\item[A:] text
\item[B:] text
\item[A:] text
\item[B:] text
\item[A:] text
\item[B:] text
\item[A:] text
\item[B:] text
\item[A:] text
\item[B:] text
\end{description}
\item[A: ]
and\item[B: ]
, you can define new shortcuts for them:\def\itema{\item[A: ]}
and\def\itemb{\item[B: ]}
