Well, it's a minor detail. The really brilliant thing here is your idea
of passing the function as a help-echo
that is a nice solution. I probably should have read the docstring on
org-footnote-get-definition a little more closely, it has the definition
you need in it!

I think this might be a simpler approach. what you want (I think) is to
leverage font-lock on tooltips to set a help-echo function instead of a
string. You can override org-activate-footnote-links with an advice (which
makes it easy to undo of you need). The tooltip function then looks up the

Org links already have tooltips out of the box. You can also display the
tooltip in the ec
I love it!
I am going to read your code, Juan Manuel, I won't understand anything but that
function is very interesting for me, since it could be used too with internal
links, I suppose.
Thanks
I answer myself to comment a couple more things on this question of
footnotes and tooltips. I think my approach is quite poor, and also when
it comes to files with many notes, it takes a long time to create or
update the list of tooltips. So I think I'll give up on' footnote
tooltips. If what it is
Hi all,
I think sometimes it would be nice to have tooltips in the footnote
references, so I can see the contents of each footnote definition,
especially when I'm in a narrowed subtree; so I've tried to write some
code. I have achieved a "semi-automatic" solution. It doesn't work bad
at all, but I
