footnoterange
package.
Summary description: References to ranges of footnotes, i.e. 1-4 instead of 1 2 3 4 (or 1,2,3,4) License type: lppl
Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This LaTeX2e package provides the environments footnoterange and footnoterange*. Multiple footnotes inside these environments are not referenced as e.g. 1 2 3 4 but as 1-4, i.e. the range (from first to last referred footnote at that place) is given. Depending on loading of the hyperref package and use of its hyperfootnotes-option the references are hyperlinked. (References to footnotes in the footnoterange* environment are never hyperlinked.)
