footmisc.dtx v5.3
by Robin Fairbairns 11 Dec '03

11 Dec '03

i have just installed a new version of footmisc.sty in ctan directory macros/latex/contrib/footmisc changes from the previous version are: - mending a bug about per-page footnote numbers in a gather environment - added DefineFNsymbol* variant - some new predefined symbol sets - symbol* option uses symbol set lamport*-robust - hanging footnotes may hang for more than one paragraph (misfeature correction) many of the changes were suggested by frank mittelbach, as part of his on-going attempts to produce something he actually liked documenting for the latex companion. it's been a long time since he asked for anything new, so i'm guessing it's time to submit this new version for the world's attention.
