1 INTRODUCTION
==============

Note 1: This package is obsolete. For LaTeX-format 2020-10-01 and newer:
Instead of \addglobalwarning{ something } use
\AddToHook{enddocument/info}{ something } and do not load the warning package.

Note 2: The package author, Harald Harders, is inactive.


Sometimes a class or package has to make a global warning such as
"Rerun for this or that reason" or "This is draft, change this
before the final run". If you are generating them with
\AtEndDocument{\PackageWarningNoLine{<packagename>}{<warning>}}
the warning appears very early before the filelist. Then the warning can easily be
overseen. This package provides a command that surely puts the warning at the end
near to the global warnings generated by LaTeX itself. You can add a warning to a list
of user defined warnings using the command \addglobalwarning as it can be seen in
the example below.
