Changes in version 0.6.2 (2026-03-06)                  

Address CRAN comments on a submission of 0.6.0, including the following.

  - The on.exit() function is called immediately after calls to par().
  - In the DESCRIPTION file, the use of backticks has been removed for
    words that are not package names. I had tried doing this in
    version 0.6.1 as a way to prevent warnings about spelling (which
    occur even though the words are listed in inst/WORDLIST). For
    reference, the words (as reported with a remote test using R
    version 4.5.2 Patched) are: "Lethality", "lethality" and
    "whalestrike". (The last of these is enclosed in backticks, as it is
    the name of an R package.)

    DESCRIPTION file.

  - Save par values before plotting, returning to original values
    afterwards.
  - app_2025() saves configuration to a temporary file, not a user-space
    file.
  - Trim an example in the documentation for strike() so it performs in
    under 1s on my machine.

In addition, add a citation to the whaleMeasurements() documentation for
AM's Zenodo new entry on whale measurements.
