+% This is file 'pagerange.sty'. %
+% %
+% When a given page range xx-yy (simple/plain characters) or %
+% \pages (command token, eg, \def\pages{xx-yy}) is submitted to the macro %
+% \pagerange (eg, \pagerange{xx-yy} or \pagerange\pages), this package %
+% splits the range as xx in the macro \pagestart and yy in \pageend. %
+% The counter equivalents of these are \prg@cnta and \prg@cntb. %
+% The command token (eg, \pages) is fully expanded before the page %
+% range is split. %
+% %
+% If you specify a range consisting of a hyphen (or any tie) but with %
+% one or two empty page numbers, the following will happen: %
+% 1. a range of the form -34 is taken to mean pages 1 to 34; %
+% 2. a range of the form 12- is taken to mean page 12 to last page; %
+% 3. a range of the form - (only hyphen) is taken to mean page 1 to %
+% last page; %
+% %
+% An empty or blank page range (ie, containing no argument and no %
+% hyphen/tie) is taken to mean range 1-1 or it may prompt a fatal error, %
+% depending on whether the boolean 'acceptempty' is true or false %
+% (respectively). %
+% %
+% Page ranges containing more than one hyphen/tie cause fatal error. %
+% %
+% If the upper limit of the page range is smaller than the lower %
+% limit, a fatal error is flagged. %
+% %
+% The tie between the pages in the pagerange can be any single %
+% non-active character; its default is the hyphen '-'. It can be %
+% changed in the call to the package (eg, \usepackage[tie=+]{pagerange}) %
+% or at any moment through \pagerangeoptions{tie=+}. Of course, active %
+% characters can't be used as ties. %
+% %
+% Because of the need for the last page of the document, at leat 2 %
+% runs/passes are needed to obtain the correct last page. %
+% %
+% This package has been tested with the 'hyperref' package, which %
+% redefines the label used by the 'lastpage' package. %
