 % I'd like a spaced out colon after the lemma:
 \newcommand{\spacedcolon}{{\rmfamily\thinspace:\thinspace}}
 \renewcommand*{\normalfootfmt}[3]{%
   \ledsetnormalparstuff
   {\notenumfont\printlines#1|}\strut\enspace
   {\select@lemmafont#1|#2}\spacedcolon\enskip#3\strut\par}

 % And I'd like the 3-col notes printed with a hanging indent:
 \renewcommand*{\threecolfootfmt}[3]{%
   \normal@pars
   \hsize .3\hsize
   \setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
   \tolerance=5000       % high, but not infinite
   \raggedright
   \hangindent1.5em \hangafter1
   \leavevmode
   \strut\hbox to 1.5em{\notenumfont\printlines#1|\hfil}\ignorespaces
   {\select@lemmafont#1|#2}\rbracket\enskip
   #3\strut\par\allowbreak}

 % And I'd like the 2-col notes printed with a double colon:
 \newcommand*{\doublecolon}{{\rmfamily\thinspace::\thinspace}}
 \renewcommand*{\twocolfootfmt}[3]{%
   \normal@pars
   \hsize .45\hsize
   \setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
   \tolerance=5000

   \leavevmode
   \strut{\notenumfont\printlines#1|}\enspace
   {\select@lemmafont#1|#2}\doublecolon\enskip
   #3\strut\par\allowbreak}

 % And in the paragraphed footnotes, I'd like a colon too:
 \renewcommand*{\parafootfmt}[3]{%
   \ledsetnormalparstuff
   {\notenumfont\printlines#1|}\enspace
   {\select@lemmafont#1|#2}\spacedcolon\enskip
   #3\penalty-10 }
 \makeatother

 % I'd like the line numbers picked out in bold.
 \renewcommand{\notenumfont}{\bfseries}
 \lineation{page}
 \linenummargin{inner}
 \setcounter{firstlinenum}{3}       % just because I can
 \setcounter{linenumincrement}{1}
 \foottwocol{A}
 \footthreecol{B}
 \footparagraph{E}
 % I've changed \normalfootfmt, so invoke it again for C and D notes.
