My real problem is that plain footnotes such as [1930] are a general nuisance to me since so many legal citations use that form. I am using a hack suggested by Jan Bocker to disable them, perform some operation and then "un hack" the hack. The hack is: replace [ with [ and a non-printing space when [ begins a plain footnote. The trouble is that I need to define new functions or macros for each general footnote operation. I think I misunderstood the purpose of f:nil in the options line. Thanks for your help.
