Footnote references, like [5]_. Note that footnotes may get rearranged, e.g., to the bottom of the "page".
.. [5] A numerical footnote. Note
there is no colon after the ]
Autonumbered footnotes are possible, like [#] and [#].
.. [#] This is the first one. .. [#] This is the second one.
They may be assigned 'autonumber labels' - for instance, [#fourth] and [#third].
.. [#third] a.k.a. third_
.. [#fourth] a.k.a. fourth_
Auto-symbol footnotes are also possible, like this: []_ and []_.
.. [] This is the first one. .. [] This is the second one.
Also arbitrary names can be used like [#harald] and [#franz].
.. [#franz] a.k.a. franz_ .. [#harald] a.k.a. harald_
Note the numbering of auto-numbered footnotes is determined by the order of the footnotes, not of the references. In the case of auto-numbered footnote references without autonumber labels ("[#]_"
), the references and footnotes must be in the same relative order. Similarly for auto-symbol footnotes ("[*]_"
).
