Text Formatting ⇒ Adding dots to indicate that the footnote is too big [...]

[latexforever]

Hello,

Let's say you write a footnote's argument, i.e.

Code: Select all

\footnote{argument}

,
where the length of argument is too high, resulting in a footnote
which is, in the output, cut in some pieces. The footnote is thus
divided across pages, but I find it ugly to see these cut footnotes
not separated with an indicator, i.e. if you use

Code: Select all

\footnote{argument}

, where length(argument)>> compared to the
available space on the current page that LaTeX processes,
it will result in, in the bottom of the current page:

Code: Select all

____
argum

and, on the following page,

Code: Select all

____
ent

where `argument' is more than a single word. Is there a solution to
put something like `(Continued on Page ...')' or at least `(...)'?

Thanks folks.
