And then we will have that one feature request to cross reference a
previous footnote! :-) In the above case, how would a person go
about asking someone to refer to an earlier footnote?
* Usage 2, keyword named footnotes
[snip]
Unless I've got it wrong, wouldn't it be better to do something like
[fn:kenpo { Kenpo is the name of several martial arts}]
(keep the keyword and definition in one place?)
And all future references go as 'see [fn:kenpo] to understand the
meaning'.
Maybe re-use the same concepts of urls? And combine anonymous and
labeled footnotes at once? And references?
labeled: [[fn:label][text]]
anonymous: [[fn:]][text]]
reference: [[fn:label]]
(In the reference form, the reference could become a clickable link.)
Example 1:
"This is the body of the text.[[fn:xyz][And this is the text of the
footnote]] It indeed is a silly piece of text, but what would you
expect?[[fn:abc][It's showing off references to previous footnotes, as
well.[fn:xyz]]]"
Example 2:
"You can also use the references to put the footnote text out of the
body text[[fn:xyzzy]].
[[fn:xyzzy][This footnote illustrates the out-of-the-body principle.]]"
Maybe too many brackets?
Cheers,
Peter.
