It seems to me what you want is the :EN. and :eEN. tags in Waterloo Script
GML (Generalized Markup Language).  The definition is as follows:

"A footnote is that which comes at the bottom (foot) of something.  An endnote
is that which comes as the end of something.  Endnotes are created in much the
same way as footnotes.  The :EN tag defines the start of the endnote text
block, and the :eEN tag defines the end."

You control the positioning of the endnotes by using the :ENDNOTES tag.  Any
already defined endnotes will be printed at that point in the document and
endnote numbering will resume 1 for the first endnote defined thereafter.  If
you do not include an :ENDNOTES tag, SCRIPT will automatically print them at
the end of your document.

Of course, the above information assumes that you use GML (and you should).
