Info has two footnote styles, which determine where the text of the footnote is located:
Here is an example of a single footnote in the end of node style:
--------- Footnotes --------- (1) Here is a sample footnote.
The name of the node with the footnotes is constructed by appending ‘-Footnotes’ to the name of the node that contains the footnotes. (Consequently, the footnotes’ node for the Footnotes node is Footnotes-Footnotes!) The footnotes’ node has an ‘Up’ node pointer that leads back to its parent node.
Here is how the first footnote in this manual looks after being formatted for Info in the separate node style:
File: texinfo.info Node: Overview-Footnotes, Up: Overview (1) The first syllable of "Texinfo" is pronounced like "speck", not "hex". …
A Texinfo file may be formatted into an Info file with either footnote style.
Use the @footnotestyle
command to specify an Info file’s
footnote style. Write this command at the beginning of a line followed
by an argument, either ‘end’ for the end node style or
‘separate’ for the separate node style.
For example,
@footnotestyle end
or
@footnotestyle separate
Write an @footnotestyle
command before or shortly after the
end-of-header line at the beginning of a Texinfo file. (If you
include the @footnotestyle
command between the start-of-header
and end-of-header lines, the region formatting commands will format
footnotes as specified.)
If you do not specify a footnote style, the formatting commands use
their default style. Currently, texinfo-format-buffer
and
texinfo-format-region
use the ‘separate’ style and
makeinfo
uses the ‘end’ style.
This chapter contains two footnotes.
