footnotesindentation
I have a question about footnotes with LaTeX:
I would like the multi-lines footnotes to look like:
1 This is the first line of the very, very long footnote
and this is the second line of the very long footnote
and this is the third line of the very long footnote.
How can I accomplish this? I already checked out package footmisc but could not find working options.
The para option of the footmisc package (which was the starting point of the linked question) is suited for a "regular full page environment".
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[para]{footmisc}
\textheight=100pt% just for the example
\begin{document}
Some text.\footnote{A footnote.}
Some text.\footnote{Another footnote.}
Some text.\footnote{And yet another footnote which (finally!) ends on a new line.}
\end{document}
footmisc has no effect with the french option to babel enabled as the main language, unless one issues
\frenchbsetup{FrenchFootnotes=false}
because, otherwise, the code for “French footnotes” is used, which is not influenced by footmisc.
It's also better to use the \url command that makes delimiters <...> useless.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english,french]{babel}
\frenchbsetup{FrenchFootnotes=false}
\usepackage[hang,multiple]{footmisc}
\renewcommand{\footnotelayout}{\raggedright} % for having raggedright footnotes
\usepackage[hyperfootnotes=false]{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\og texte en français \fg{}%
\footnote{celaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa \url{http://www.address.net/long/path/to/filename.html}
cellllllllllllllllllla%
}%
\footnote{vérification%
}
\selectlanguage{english}
english text%
\footnote{thisssssssssssssss \url{http://www.address.net/long/path/to/filename.html}
thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis%
}%
\footnote{multiple check%
}
\end{document}

With the following code in the preamble one can use the normal
\footnotecommand:The footnote number will be flush with the left margin.
