[NTG-context] Footnote markers
Greetings, Is there a way to attach a footnote marker to the text following the footnote, rather than to the text preceding? That is, given something like: Some text \footnote{note.} more text. I would get (using an asterisk here, but that is not important): Some text *more text. rather than: Some text* more text. I am trying to re-typeset a couple of documents from circa 1600 where it is done that way. Many thanks for Context. It is quite nifty.
