# crossrefenum 2024/04/13 v1.1
Smart typesetting of enumerated cross-references for various TeX formats.

CTAN: `macros/generic/crossrefenum`
## Summary
_crossrefenum_ lets TeX manage the formatting
of bunches of cross-references for you. It features:
* Automatic collapsing of references;
* Support for references by various criteria,
including page and note number, line number in ConTeXt
and edpage and edline when used in conjunction with _reledmac_;
* Handling of references combining two criteria
(e.g. by page and note number);
* Extension mechanisms to add support to other types of references
without modifying the internal macros.
Note that sorting is not supported.
I assume that users know in what order
the labels they refer to appear in their document.
It is written in Plain TeX as much as possible
in order to make it compatible with a wide array of formats.
For the moment, it works out of the box with ConTeXt and LaTeX.
