Adding a second footnote crashes Marked
I'm editing a markdown file in Byword and previewing it in Marked. The file is hosted in my Dropbox folder (not sure if that's relevant but it can't hurt to add the information).
I can add one footnote using [^fn] just fine.
Anytime I add another footnote anywhere in the document and hit
Cmd-S to save, Marked crashes. I'm new to markdown so
I'm happy to accept that I'm doing something horribly wrong with
the syntax, although my previous experience with Marked is that it
is robust enough to handle operator error like that.
Markdown file with two footnotes is attached. I've also attached a copy of the crash report generated by OS X.
And if it helps, it's a 7,1 MacBook that is as far as I know running the latest version of Lion.

Hi Shane,
It's because you're defining the same footnote twice. Each footnote has to have a unique identifier, so you'd want to use something like [^fn1] and [^fn2]. The footnote identifier can be anything you want, you're not limited to "fn" either.

Ah, operator error! Now that's something I can easily fix :)
Thanks Brett.
