I use XEmacs as my editor.
I need to extract footnotes from a very long LaTeX document. I would
like to start with a copy of the document, then delete from the copy
all text which is not a footnote.
Is there a way to:
(1) set the mark
(2) search forward for the next instance of the string
"\footnote", highlighting all the text between the mark and the
search target
(3) cut the highlighted text
When I try to do this, after the search I see the message "Mark saved
where search started", but I see no highlighting. When I try to cut
the text, I see the message "The region is not active now".
If this procedure cannot be made to work, is there another way to
automate the process?
