[Help] Correct syntax for `se renumber-endnotes`

[David]

I think I managed this once before, but I feel like I could use a little more guidance than the `se renumber-endnotes -h` command gives, or than I can divine from looking at the code.

So ... say I have a production with 1351 endnotes. I discover that after n.1206, I need to introduce a new note (so "new 1207"), and thus bump the current nn.1207-1351 to nn.1208-1352.

I assume I do the "bump" first, then introduce the new note. But I cannot work out the syntax for the `se` command. Can anyone help? Thanks!

It's so simple when you put it that way. :)

It also helps to be looking at the correct command! Thanks for the help.
