>Can someone suggest a good macro package for flexible footnotes?  I have 
>translated a long article that has many chapters and many footnotes.  I 
>need a second set of footnotes for translators notes, which I will number 
>alphabetically.  I have done that, using something of a kludge, but two 
>problems remain.  First the book style starts the footnote numbering over 
>for each chapter.  The original didn't and I wish to preserve his 
>numbering.  Secondly, he has one footnote numbered 2bis; it appears, of 
>course between 2 and 3.  Does any package give that much flexibility?  If 
>not, I may have to use plain's footnotes.
