Hi list! I want to know how to properly use footnotes in math mode. The
following:
\starttext
\startformula
\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=\lim _{h=0}\left[\int_{a}^{c-h} f(x) d
x+\int_{c+h}^{b} f(x) d x\right] \startfootnote Footnote \stopfootnote
\stopformula
\stoptext
doesn't complain but it doesn't show the footnote either.
So, I'm using the following workaround:
\starttext
\startformula
\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=\lim _{h=0}\left[\int_{a}^{c-h} f(x) d
x+\int_{c+h}^{b} f(x) d x\right]\note[mynote1]
\stopformula
\footnotetext[mynote1]{Cauchy s'occupe du cas...}
\stoptext
However, 1) I have to create notes every time and it's kinda annoying
when a large amount of formulas are annotated (I've read somewhere it's
bad practice to (ab)use footnotes in math writing, but I see this often
in books from the 19th century or earlier), 2) the numbering is bold.
Making the numbering normal rather than bold would be fine, but I want
to know about a better solution. Thank you in advance
You have two options:
1. Add \automigrateinserts at the begin of your document.
\automigrateinserts
\starttext
\startformula
x\footnote{Footnote}
\stopformula
\stoptext
2. Add a postponingnotes environment around the formula.
\starttext
\startpostponingnotes
\startformula
x\footnote{Footnote}
\stopformula
\stoppostponingnotes
\stoptext
The first option wasn't always reliable with many nested box levels and
this is when you can use the second option.

PS: How to answer messages sent to the mailing list? I'm on Gmail and I
have to wait until the Digest comes. However, I can see messages in
mail-archive.com <http://mail-archive.com>. It's a dumb question, but
when I want to thank Hans, Wolfgang or Aditya (and everyone else) for an
answer, or following a thread, I have to edit the whole Digest mail.
Sorry if I've been ungrateful by not answering back. Thank you again.
Why don't you change this in the list settings or use a separate mail
address for mailing lists.
Wolfgang
