package.

Version: 0.5.0

Summary description: Endnotes for LaTeX

Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v0.5.0 (2024-12-03)

### Changed
- The support for running headers in `\printpostnotes`, which previously
  generated its data by means of an internal cross-reference structure, has
  migrated to use the generalized mark mechanism provided by the `ltmarks`
  kernel module instead.  This was a long due change, since `ltmarks` is *the*
  right tool for the task, but unfortunately was not available when
  `postnotes` was originally developed and released.  In practice, we get
  improved functionality replacing what was a complicated cross-reference
  setup with a straightforward application of `ltmarks`.  Very neat, if I may
  say so.  Hat tip to `ltmarks` devs.

### Deprecated
- The header support variables `\pnhdpagefirst`, `\pnhdpagelast`,
  `\pnhdchapfirst`, `\pnhdchaplast`, `\pnhdsectfirst`, `\pnhdsectlast`,
  `\pnhdnamefirst`, and `\pnhdnamelast` are deprecated in favor of the new
  `ltmarks` based mark classes.
    - For the sake of stability, the package still provides a "legacy" version
      of these variables, set using `ltmarks` data.  This is meant to provide
      a window of opportunity for users to migrate to the new system smoothly,
      but *migrate you must*, since *these variables will be removed in the
      future*.  Migrating should range somewhere between "very easy" and
      "trivial", and intervention is only needed if you used any of these
      variables to build custom headers.  See the User manual for updated
      examples.
    - Also note that this "legacy version" of the variables require one more
      compilation run to converge, so there's also a clear benefit for you to
      adjust sooner rather than later.
