On Wed, 11 May 2005 Uwe Lück submitted an update to the lineno package.
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ednotes Summary description: miscellaneous improvements License type: dfsg
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Restored global version of numbering lines of a parbox or minipage or ... (I had missed and disabled this in taking over lineno.sty, and disabled), explained in documentation.
2. Enabled flushbottom in two-column pagewise or switching mode.
3. Re-implemented modulo mode -- disabling certain users' tricks, see lineno.pdf sec. 5.5, also for a still supported substituting trick.
4. Tidied up setting the next line number globally vs. locally (TeXbook p. 301).
5. Tidied up discussions (in documentation) of possible changes in implementation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the update.
