How to change footnote prefix

This unfortunately will not be of direct help to you, unless you use Cygwin, but I figured I’d drop a link to this write-up on how to insert sed into the processing pipeline so that quick little patches like this can be done to the output during compile. Anyone else coming through this thread might benefit.

For Windows, there may be some other basic text processing tool like sed, but I am not very familiar with anything other than Linux and Mac.
