How to get the citations / references look like [number] ? The number-
inside-square-brackets [1], [2], ... is the typical LaTeX look one
gets from \cite{LABEL}, and how i think is the common way to typeset
citations in scientific articles or technical reports. However, from
Sphinx, both the HTML and PDF output i have obtained looks like
[LABEL] where the label-name is written out. The [number] would not be
mixed with the footnotes in the PDF output, as the footnotes will be
small-font-superscripts compared to the citations with square brackets
and normal font.

I see that it would be possible to filter/scan the *.tex output files
and insert \cite. Or maybe there are already some nice add-on
available ?

Otherwise, i would wish to have a Sphinx/restructured text syntax that
handles this, e.g. with the #-character _after_ the label:

" This is a reference to document [LABEL#]_ and intended NOT to be a
footnote ...

.. [LABEL#]  A. Adams, Scientific American, .....


Can you please tell if some solution to this can be obtained in
Sphinx ?

Thanks/ Peo
