LaTeX forum ⇒ Page Layout ⇒ Reledmac: Seperating notes from main text in the source code?

[wednesday]

Hello List,

I'm using Reledmac to footnote a text; mainly using the familiar notes feature.

Is there a convenient way to separate the foot note text from the main text (in the source code)?

I ask because embedding lots of notes within the main text essentially makes the main text unreadable (in the source code). This makes it kinda difficult to edit/maintain both the main text and the notes text.

Any thoughts/alternative experience appreciated...

Another question, again for reledmac; is there a way to refer to a familiar foot note number from within another familiar foot note?

E.g.,

11 foot note number one; just some text.
12 foot note number two; see also note #11.
