localising headers

[Pika78]

Hello,
first I would like to thank you for your package, as I find it very useful and a nice addition.
I would like to ask you what would be the best way to 'localize' the header in French. I am trying to print in French : "Notes des pages m à n" and have used the following code:

\usepackage{postnotes}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\NewDocumentCommand \pnheaderdefault {}
{
\tl_if_eq:NNTF \pnhdpagefirst \pnhdpagelast
{ Notesdelapage \pnhdpagefirst }
{ Notesdespages~ \pnhdpagefirst -- \pnhdpagelast }
}
\ExplSyntaxOff

\postnotesetup{
heading={
\section*{\pntitle}
\markright{\pnheaderdefault}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\pntitle}
} ,
}

But all I get printed in the header is : "Note des pages", without the page numbers.
What am I missing ?

Many thanks for you r help.
With best regards.

It's hard to tell with just a code snippet. A guess is that, since \pnheaderdefault already exists, you get an error message for trying to define it anew, and you'd have to use \RenewDocumentCommand for your definition to be valid.

But you don't have to redefine \pnheaderdefault at all to localize postnotes for French, you just have to set \pntitle, \pnhdnotes, \pnhdtopage, and \pnhdtopages with proper values. The "Localization" section of the manual describes how to do it, depending on the language package you use. Supposing you are using babel, it'd be something like, for example:

\addto\extrasfrench{\renewcommand*{\pnhdtopages}{des pages}}

But, actually, even if you can set it yourself by these means, I'd love to include proper French support. Could you provide adequate values for the following variables? (these are the English defaults)

\tl_set:Nn \pntitle { Notes }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdnotes { Notes }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdtopage { to~page }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdtopages { to~pages }

The first one is used in the main notes section heading, the remaining three are used for the running headers (you just have to worry about the strings contents there). My first guess, on the little French I know, would be:

\tl_set:Nn \pntitle { Notes }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdnotes { Notes }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdtopage { de~la~page }
\tl_set:Nn \pnhdtopages { des~pages }

Are these adequate values for them in French?

Hello again : Yes the French strings you are proposing are adequate values ! Thank you for your response. Best regards
