[NTG-context] Splitting footnotes

Hello, folks-- I am trying to typeset a book that has many footnotes; most of them are of moderate length, but a few are terribly long[*]. I am trying to use \setupfootnotes[split=*], but so far haven't got good results. You see, there is only one footnote that really needs to be split across p

Re: [NTG-context] Usage of \setupfootnotedefinition?

Thanks to Albrecht and Steffen for their quick and informative replies. I guess \setupfootnotedefinition isn't what I am looking for. It seems to mainly be a way to customize the footnote *numbering*, right? What I wanted to try was to put footnotes in the margin. My text has a lot of footnotes
