VimFootnotes for Markdown

This is a fork of vim-pandoc/vim-markdownfootnotes.

The following features are removed because I don't use them:

• Non-Arabic footnotes.
• Commands to change the number of footnotes.

The following features are added:

• Editing of existing footnotes in a split window.
• Always choose the lowest available number for a new footnote. This accommodates cases in which some footnotes have been deleted, and should replace the functionality from the removed features.
• Insert footnotes at the end of the next punctuation, rather than under the cursor.

The script defines three mappings,

<Leader>f    Insert new footnote
<Leader>e    Edit existing footnote
<Leader>r    Return from footnote

To insert a footnote, type <Leader>f. A footnote mark will be inserted after the cursor. A matching footnote mark will be inserted at the end of the file. A new buffer will open in a split window at the bottom of your screen, ready to edit the new footnote. To edit an existing footnote, type e, and a new buffer will open in a split window to edit the new footnote. When you are done, type <Leader>r to close the split and return to the main text.

Commands

AddVimFootnote : inserts footnotemark at cursor location, inserts footnotemark on new line at end of file, opens a split window all ready for you to enter in the footnote.

EditVimFootnote : edit closest footnotemark to cursor location, opens a split window all ready for you to edit the footnote.

ReturnFromFootnote : closes the split window and returns to the text in proper place.

These are mapped to <Leader>f, <Leader>e, and <Leader>r respectively.
