Hello all,
I am trying to implement some style-guide-defined (Chicago 17, and now,
18) requirements to the end notes in a book. The need is to insert
non-end-note text into the list of end notes. But end notes are not a
list (as far as I can see) and \writetolist and such are no help.
The text to be inserted is of two types. The first is the name of the
chapter from which the following notes were generated. It would be nice
to automatically generate these.
The second type is pseudo-end-notes crediting the book and chapter
epigraphs, which should appear as unnumbered end notes (at the start of
the note section and the start of each chapter's notes). Ideally these
would be generated in the same way as regular end notes but will not
increment the note numbers (and should not, at least in my use case,
require cross-referencing or bookmarking).
I can hack the first requirement with:
\define[1]\EndNoteChapter{\testpage[3]
\blank
\midaligned{\tfa{Chapter #1}}
\blank}
in the environment and
\EndNoteChapter{6 How I Saved the World}
at the end of the last end note in the preceding chapter, but this is
obviously prone to mistakes. I would rather integrate the handling into
the chapter heading environment.
I suppose that this hack might be extended to handle the epigraph notes
as well, but it is just a hack.
Has anyone successfully dealt with this before? If not, is there the
possibility of adding similar functionality to \writetolist and such for
end note structures?
