MultiMarkdown to LaTeX: problem with inline footnotes

Scrivener Markdown & LaTeX
1

Hi.

I’m compiling my book in Scrivener using MultiMarkdown to LaTeX Modern (Custom LaTeX) Copy (customised) configuration.

Actually I have two problems when converting inline footnotes:

  1. When I’m using words with hyphen, such as Daito-ryu, the generated output is Daito–ryu (i.e. with two hyphens) which of course looks weird in the LaTeX output. How can I influence this conversion? The same string in normal text is left intact.

  2. Is there any way please how to rename the macro name for the compiled footnote? I want to use \myfootnote instead of the default \footnote.

I will appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Richard
