footnotes and linenumbering

footnotes and linenumbering

[Martin Fechner]

Hi all,

is it possible to have a linenumbering also in the footnotes? I tried it 
with

------
\setuplinenumbering[method=page]
\setupfootnotedefinition[location=serried]
\setupfootnotes[before={\startlinenumbering[continue]},after={\stoplinenumbering}]

\starttext
\startlinenumbering
\input knuth

some text\footnote{the first footnote}
more text\footnote{\dorecurse{10}{a very long footnote }}
\stoplinenumbering
\stoptext
------

but only the whole footnotefigure has one linenumber and it doesn't 
continue right if method=page is set.
Is there any solution to this?

Greetings, Martin

This is not supported. I can imagine it becoming part of one of the 
critical edition ctx projects. There is no quick hack and it would be a 
specific option to for notes.

That is what I assumed. Is it possible to say which amount of work is 
necessary to implement this feature and what period of time you have in 
mind (three months, one year, five years)?

Thanks,

Martin
