A while back I asked about this but I guess there was some confusion about my Q about an alternative \cite or \footnote command. (The numbers below are \footnotesize superscripts and the footnote itself is also \footnotesize). DESIRED OUTPUT: 1 This is my text. [...] ----------- 1 This is footnote text at the bottom of the page. [sometime later, even on another page ...] 1 I want to refer to the first footnote again and get the right number superscripted again. POSSIBLE SOURCE 1: This is my text.\footnote{\label{foo} This is footnote text at the bottom of the page.} [...] I want to refer to the first footnote again$^{\ref{foo}}$ [...] PROBLEM WITH 1: \label doesn't work with \footnote POSSIBLE SOURCE 2: This is my text.\cite{foo} [...] I want to refer to the first footnote again\cite{foo} [...] \begin{\thebibliography}{00} \bibitem{foo}{This is footnote text at the bottom of the page.} [...] \end{\thebibliography} PROBLEM WITH 2: \cite normally produces a text-like section called References at the place in the text where \begin{\thebibliography}{00} is invoked. (I already have several cite modifications that use superscripted footnotemarks instead of bracketed [1] numbers in the text.) ``IDEAL'' SOURCE? This is my text.\citefoot{foo} [...] I want to refer to the first footnote again\citefoot{foo} [...] [to generate .aux output, do these \citems have to be in some sort of new environment???] \begin{\thecitems} \citem{foo}{This is footnote text at the bottom of the page.} [...] \end{\thecitems} PROBLEM WITH IDEAL SOURCE: If \citefoot - \citem exists, I am unaware of it. Does anyone have anything like this? Is it ftp'able or mailable? Thanks in advance.
