Hi Org Moders,
This must surely be a stupid question, so forgiveness in advance,
please.
I write legal texts and often need to reference case law like this:
/Pyke v The Hibernian Bank Limited/ [1950] IR 195
Obviously, I don't want the [1950] to be a footnote. What do I do?
Thanks,
Alan

Hi Alan,
you can add the following line:
#+OPTIONS: f:nil
at the start of your Org file to disable footnotes entirely. For more
information, see "12.3 Export Options" in the manual.
You could also insert the unicode character "zero width space" after the
opening bracket like this:
M-x ucs-insert 200B <RET>
That is a handy trick I got from reading this very list some time ago
(sorry, I don't remember who had posted that), although I imagine that
gets tedious after a while.
I do not know if it is possible to disable plain footnotes while still
using the [fn:1] syntax.
HTH, Jan

Yes, thanks. I was using f:nil but what I would really like is to
disable [1] type footnotes while retaining the [fn:1] style.
Nice trick on the zero-space - That would be OK, I suppose, but like
you say, a bit tedious after a while.
Cheers,
Alan

Alright, so we know a way to do what we want (although it is possibly
not the most elegant method), but it is a tedious, repetitive task. No
worries, that's what computers are for!
Add the following to your .emacs:
(defun jb/disable-plain-footnotes-hack ()
(if (plist-get opt-plist :no-plain-footnotes)
(save-excursion
(goto-char 1)
(replace-regexp "\\[\\([0-9]+\\)\\]" "[\u200B\\1]"))))
(add-to-list 'org-export-inbuffer-options-extra
'("DISABLE_PLAIN_FOOTNOTES" :no-plain-footnotes))
(add-hook 'org-export-preprocess-hook 'jb/disable-plain-footnotes-hack)
To disable plain footnotes, you can now add a line like this to your Org
file:
#+DISABLE_PLAIN_FOOTNOTES: some arbitrary text
Hope this works and solves your problem for now.
Jan

Hi Jan,
That does it with one minor modification: I needed
(load "org-exp.el")
before the (add-to-list xxx).
Thanks for your help!
Cheers,
Alan
in .emacs in order to make it work.
