% \section{Suggestions}
%
% Here are ideas commented out that you might want to try. 
%
% You can learn a helpful general strategy about how to work with hooks in
% \LaTeX{} from this example.  If you put the inhibitor directly into
% \cs\PreFootnote, you could never take it out without either losing whatever
% else had been put into \cs\PreFootnote, or using some thorny procedure that
% stepped through the macro and removed just the inhibitor (you don't want to
% try that).  If you add a ``subhook'' to \cs\PreFootnote, you can turn the
% subhook on or off without even knowing what else in in \cs\PreFootnote.  You
% can't redefine \cs\TMInhibitSwitchingtrue.  A \cs\newcommand would work as
% well as the \cs\newlet here, a tad less efficient.
%    \begin{macrocode}
% \newlet\FootnoteTMHook\TMInhibitSwitchingtrue
% \addto@macro\PreFootnote {%
%   \FootnoteTMHook
% }
%    \end{macrocode}
% To undo the effect later, say \code{\let\FootnoteTMHook\relax} or
% \code{\global\let}\lips as appropriate.

%
% I'm presently writing a dissertation on \beckett.  Although there is
% comparatively little biographical material available, it is well known that
% he spent several years under the wing of \joyce, another of the great writers
% in English this century.  \joyce and \beckett, it is curious, like other
% great writers, both had trouble with their vision, and both were exiles in
% some sense.  One of my favorite pieces by \beckett is \worst, a short work
% written in the 1980's not long before his death: ``Fail again.  Fail
% better.''  \worst is lyric and exalting to me.  A work I feel is underrated
% is the radio play \fall (all but his three long plays are collected in \csp).
% It's extremely funny, and very touchingly compassionate.  Because it is a
% radio play, it loses less from performance to reading.  I would recommend
% \fall to anyone.  His later plays (and fiction) are famously enigmatic, but
% with a little practice, it is not hard to see the same lyric beauty and
% compassion.  Take the brief television play \nacht (in \csp of course), which
% has no dialogue, only a few murmured bars of the Schubert song, also brief,
% and also called \nacht---it's one of the most hauntingly beautiful few
% minutes of music I've ever heard, and I particularly recommend Cheryl
% Studer's recording on Deutsche Grammophone.  Every other recording I've heard
% plays too fast.
% 
% \ResetAbbrevs{All}

% \joyceshort is short for \joyce, not \joyce Smith.
