Thank you Darren. The first version works perfectly to give what I expect to
see for endnotes.
The only addition I made was to add "\wide" before and "\endwide" after
"\printpagenotes*".
That allowed the endnotes to use the full width of text+notemargin.
Incidentally, why the asterisk?
With or without the asterisk, the notes get printed with their numbers. (and
they won't appear in a T.O.C.).
Thanks again -- you have been a great help.
Cheers, George
