Please note that the order of these codes is important.
[rps1] indicates that what follows is to appear in the Table of Contents, the "1" indicating the hierarchy level within the TOC. The [vss] code starts making what follows "invisible" in print and braille in the actual main body of the document. [vse] indicates the end of the invisible text and [rpe] ends what is to be in the TOC.
The second line which uses the code [rps2] will appear in the text, and be a level 2 TOC item.
