Footnote viewer #45

Closed rsvdr closed 2 years ago

It would be nice to have a footnote viewer. Perhaps as a floating window popping out when you press some keybind (similar to the ToC window when you press TAB). The currently displayed text would have to be search for patterns like ^{1}.

Hello there, sorry just replied. Still doing research on how actually footnote written in HTML, I found so many inconsistencies so far, like using anchor <a>, using fn tag <fn>, or other stuff. So probably this feature won't come in short time. Sorry.

But if other developers interested in implementing this, maybe you can start on https://github.com/wustho/epy source code, I hope it's more readable than this epr...
