Dear all, next LaTeX release will have a \footref macro built-in[1]
\subsection{Producing several footnote marks to one footnote} It is sometimes necessary to reference the same footnote several times, i.e., produce several footnote marks with the same number or symbol. This is now always possible by placing a \cs{label} into the \cs{footnote} and reference it with the command \cs{footref} elsewhere. This way marks refering to footnotes anywhere on the page (including those in \texttt{minipage}s) can be generated. In the past this command was only available with certain classes or when loading the \pkg{footmisc} package. % \githubissue{482} Adding support within AUCTeX is easy. Within RefTeX, we have to tweak `reftex-ref-style-alist' which is defined like this: (defcustom reftex-ref-style-alist '(("Default" t (("\\ref" ?\C-m) ("\\Ref" ?R) ("\\pageref" ?p))) ("Varioref" "varioref" (("\\vref" ?v) ("\\Vref" ?V) ("\\vpageref" ?g))) ("Fancyref" "fancyref" (("\\fref" ?f) ("\\Fref" ?F))) ("Hyperref" "hyperref" (("\\autoref" ?a) ("\\autopageref" ?u))) ("Cleveref" "cleveref" (("\\cref" ?c) ("\\Cref" ?C) ("\\cpageref" ?d) ("\\Cpageref" ?D))) ("AMSmath" "amsmath" (("\\eqref" ?e)))) I suggest to change the "Default" entry like this: (("\\ref" ?\C-m) ("\\Ref" ?R) ("\\pageref" ?p) ("\\footref" ?t))) i.e., add \footref and bind it to t key. Any comment about tke key binding? Best, Arash Footnotes: [1] https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/blob/develop/base/doc/ltnews33.tex
