New on CTAN: fnpct


On Tue, 22 May 2012 Clemens Niederberger submitted the

  fnpct

package.

Summary description: footnote kerning
License type: lppl

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The `fnpct' package basically does two things to footnotes: if footnote marks 
are followed by a comma or a dot the order of footnote and punctuation mark is 
reversed and the kerning gets adjusted. As a side effect a new method of 
creating multiple footnotes and some other features are provided.

The package is a response to a question on TeX.SE (http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/56094/5049).
