+natural for humanities studies, yet does not interfere with the flow of
+text (as author-year styles do).  The package differs from @code{footbib} in
+that it uses real footnotes, potentially in the same series as any of the
+document's other footnotes.  @code{opcit} also, as its name implies, avoids
+repetition of full citations, achieving this, to a large extent,
+automatically.")
