Re: Footnote

[William Rehwinkel]

Dear Dimitri,

Actually, the \auto-footnote function operates a little weirdly (at 
least it didn't seem intuitive to me). The `text` and `footnote` in

`\auto-footnote text footnote`

are just the contents of the markup, so you write what you would write 
inside the brackets of \markup{}. Like below.

Thanks,
-William

P.S. Note the use of `\wordwrap`

% -----
\version "2.25.18"

\markup {Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina was an Italian composer of 
late \auto-footnote "Renaissance" \wordwrap { \bold { Renaissance music 
} is traditionally understood to cover European music of the 15th and 
16th centuries. } music. }
