Hello,
Searching for a \thanks equivalent command on ConTeXt, I ended up on
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LaTeX_Thanks.
But I didn't like that solution, because the author footnote is placed on a
new area instead the same as text footnotes.
So I made a simple solution, that the author footnotes is placed in the
same area and doesn't interfere on real counter. I want here to share my
solution, below you can see it.
\definestartstop[author]
[before={\savenumber[footnote]
\resetnumber[footnote]
\start
\let\thanks\footnote
\setupfootnotes[numberconversion=set 2]},
after={\stop
\restorenumber[footnote]}]
It can be used as that:
\startauthor
Wagner Macedo\thanks{Brazilian citizen}
\stopauthor
Of course, I could did a \author command, but I generally prefer to use
start/stop blocks.
What do you think? This could be improved?
