footnotes congestion

footnotes congestion

[Tom Fossen]

The footnotes in the paper I am writing at the moment all want to rest on the 
same page. I want them all at the end of my paper, and they can take as many 
pages as they need, but they don't want to.  Or may be they can't....
I noticed the problem was raised here a few months ago, but a search of the 
archive didn't reveal a solution. Maybe I overlooked something?
Is there a solution?

\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \footnote{oeps} \page}

\placefootnotes

I am sorry, Hans, too big a leap from your instruction to my reality as a 
beginner in Context (and TeX  in general as well).

I can reproduce my problem when I put your instruction in a new .tex file and 
take, say,  \dorecurse{70} .
This way I get so many oepses, that they cause an overflow - the same with 
the footnotes in my paper - . They do not neatly divide  themselves onto two 
pages.

So it's probably the \dorecurse command I do not understand. How to put it in 
my script with many footnotes, that is called "werkstuk.tex", with 
\stelvoetnotenin[plaats=tekst] at the beginning and \plaatsvoetnoten at the 
end ?  

By the way  - is there in the documentation a list or table with all 
english-dutch-german commands ?

Thanks for the tip! I've been wondering about that question also, as I often
see commands tips and tricks in English and I wonder how they go in Dutch.
The file was in my c:/tex/texmf/context/base directory, quite deep and now I
copied it to a place where I can find it easier. Next thing I'd like to do
is input it in a tex file, compile it and print it so I can look up these
things later.

You might be interested in mult-con.tex as well (same place) !!
