Typeset footnotes in run-on paragraphs, instead of one above another; this is a re-seating, for the LaTeX environment, of an example in the TeXbook. The same basic code, improved for use in e-TeX-based LaTeX, appears in the comprehensive footnote package footmisc, and superior versions are also available in the manyfoot and bigfoot packages.

The authors are Chris Rowley, Dominik Wujastyk and Bradley Smith.
