+
+The \file{fn2end.sty} package converts footnotes into
+end notes, where a lot of publishers want them.  It
+does so by redefining the action of the \cs{footnote}
+command.  Instead of putting footnotes at the bottom
+of the page, the notes are written to a file with
+extension \file{end}, whence they may be retrieved
+when desired.  To handle footnotes on the title page
+flexibly, \cs{footnote} is not redefined until the
+\cs{makeendnotes} command is issued.  Place the
+command \cs{theendnotes} where you want the notes
+to appear: after the last footnote, usually right
+before the bibliography.  The \cs{theendotes} command
+merely \cs{inputs} the \file{end} file, it does {\em
+not} create a new section or a new page. If you do
+create a notes section with the \cs{section} command,
+you should follow it with an \cs{indent} command.
+Otherwise, the first note will be the only note that
+does not start with an indented paragraph.
+
+There are now user renewable commands.  The length
+\cs{noteskip} is the space between the note number
+and the start of the note text. By default it is 1
+em.  Change its value with the \cs{setlength} command.
+You can use  \cs{renewcommand} to change
+\cs{notenumberformat}, which formats the note number.
+By default it is defined as
+\begin{verbatim}
+    \newcommand{\notenumberformat}[1]{$#1$}
+\end{verbatim}
+If you want the end note numbers to appear as
+superscripts with periods, you could
+\begin{verbatim}
+    \renewcommand{\notenumberformat}[1]{${}^{#1.}$}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Successive \cs{makeendnotes} commands overwrite the
+notes file.  This is a feature, not a bug.  For
+example:
+\begin{verbatim}
+    \makeendnotes
+
+    \chapter{One}
+    blah
+    \section*{Notes}\indent
+    \theendnotes
+
+    \makeendnotes
+
+    \chapter{Two}
+    blah
+    \section*{Notes}\indent
+    \theendnotes
+\end{verbatim}
+etc, can be used to put notes at the end of each
+chapter.  (This is perverse because it makes the
+notes nearly impossible to find, but some publishers
+like it.)
+
+Additionally, \cs{restorefootnotes} restores the
+normal behavior of footnotes, so that if you really
+wanted to, you could have a title page for each
+chapter with acknowledgment footnotes on the bottom,
+and thereafter have end notes for the rest of the
+material in the chapter.
+
+
+{\em Bug}: Since \verb#\# is catcoded to 12 for
+verbatim copying, if your footnote's text contains
+an unequal number of \verb#\{#'s and \verb#\}#'s,
+for instance, if you have a \verb#\left\{#  balanced
+by a \verb#\right.#, then \TeX\ believes you have
+unmatched braces and does not figure out where the
+argument of the \cs{footnote} command ends.  (Believe
+it or not, this happened to me the first time I
+tried to use the style.)
+{\em Workaround}: Use \verb#\lbrace# and \verb#\rbrace#
+in your footnotes instead of \verb#\{# and \verb#\}#.
