Markdown footnotes

Here is a simple footnote1.

A footnote can also have multiple lines2.

You can also use words, to fit your writing style more closely3.

var s = "JavaScript syntax highlighting";
alert(s);

s = "Python syntax highlighting"
print s

No language indicated, so no syntax highlighting. 
But let's throw in a <b>tag</b>.

  1. My reference. ↩

  2. Every new line should be prefixed with 2 spaces.
    This allows you to have a footnote with multiple lines. ↩

  3. Named footnotes will still render with numbers instead of the text but allow easier identification and linking.
    This footnote also has been made with a different syntax using 4 spaces for new lines. ↩
