I'm confused by what the notation reference has to say about footnotes:

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/notation/other

Regarding the example for \auto-footnote and \footnote (they are identical -
why?), where do the 'b' and 'd' go? The text says that \auto-footnote means
"The footnote will be annotated automatically" (I don't understand what this
means either), whereas for \footnote this is not the case. But using
\auto-footnote gives me an error saying the \auto-footnote is an unknown
escaped string.

For example: 

\markup { \auto-footnote "one" "two" }

prints "auto-footnote one two"

and

\markup { \footnote "one" "two" }

prints "one" with no footnote.

I don't care at this point whether the note is a footnote or endnote, I'll
be happy with either - preferably a footnote, but given that I can't get it
to print anything, even a working endnote would be an improvement.
