Re: Footnotes/Endnotes formatting

[Michael Norman michael.norman@xxxxxxxx]

Thanks to Paul and Harry for their help so far. Before we launch
anything, we're going to check again with the publisher. Meanwhile,
we're going to prepare conventional footnote/end-of-the-book
endnotes. And to that end...
To create a space in the *endnote* between the endnote number and the
beginning of the note, and to put a period after that endnote number,
David Auerbach suggested an easy alteration to the printer file.

MD FN=(*+ENDNOTE) in the mode table, then in the attribute definitions:

AT:ENDNOTE
AT<
AT>.
;AT=2
ET
AT>[period] produced the space, but not the period. Customization
guide says AT> is the code sent to the printer to turn off the
attribute. My printer (HP2200 [HP4-PLUS.PRN]) is interpreting the
period as a space [if you remove the period, you get no space after
the note number], or it's interpreting it as nothing and leaving a
space. It would also seem than you can put several different
characters after AT> and get a space, as if any character there, save
escape, will force a space, AT>k, for example. What am I missing, or
misinterpreting?
