Inspired by Emmanuel Touzery tip: " http://vim.sourceforge.net/tip_view.php?tip_id=332 " and discussion below (thanks to Luc for pluginization hints) " I added functions and turned it into vim script. " Commands: " <Leader>f (in insert mode) - inserts footnotemark, opens at bottom window where "     footnotemark is also inserted and you are ready to type in your "     footnotetext. " <Leader>r (in insert mode) - closes footnote window and returns to the text in "     proper place. " " You can change them by placing in your vimrc: "  imap your_map <Plug>AddVimFootnote "  imap your_map <Plug>ReturnFromFootnote " " "    Footnotes are placed at the end of the file but above signature delimiter "    (is one exists). " " Settings: " g:vimfootnotetype - possible values: " arabic (default) - [1] [2] [3] ... " alpha  - [a] [b] ... [z] [aa] [bb] ... [zz] [a] ... "   Alpha  - as above but uppercase [A] ... "   star   - [*] [**] [***] ... " " Additional commands: " FootnoteNumber: " You can change current footnote number (one obligatory argument) "   :FootnoteNumber 5 " FootnoteNumberRestore: " You can restore old footnote number   " :FootnoteNumberRestore " FootnoteUndo: " Decrease footnote counter by 1 " :FootnoteUndo " FootnoteMeta: " Change type of the footnotes and restart counter (1, a, A, *) " :FootnoteMeta " If your previous footnote type was alpha, Alpha or star new type will " be arabic. " If your previous footnote type was arabic new type will be alpha. " :FootnoteMeta name_of_the_type " Change footnote type to name_of_the_type. If name_of_the_type is the " same as your current footnote type nothing would be changed. " FootnoteRestore: " Restore previous footnote type and counter. Unfortunately there is no easy " way to sort footnotes at the end of file without handmade :!sort on marked " lines (it doesn't work for 'star' type). " :FootnoteRestore " " For easier work with this commands I would suggest place this lines in your " vimrc (they offer very nice competion of Vim commands): " set laststatus=2 " set wildmode=longest,list " set wildmenu " " And/or map :FootnoteComs for something you like. " """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
