Re: Re[2]: Greek font in Footnote problem

[Alan Bowen <acbowen@princeton.edu>]

Guiseppe and Thomas—

A quick run though with my test file indicates that
	\def\localgreek#1{\scantokens{\Gf\enablegreek#1}}
will work in the body text, but only if one enters the Greek code using 
double braces as follows:
		{\localgreek{Greek code}}
With single braces either the Greek turns on and stays on thereafter or 
the breathings get messed up with initial spaces.

Still no Greek in the footnotes, though.
