m-bib package

["Christopher G D Tipper" <ctipper@hol.gr>]

Hi all,

I'm having some teething problems with the \usemodule[m-bib] package of Taco's and I wonder if people can set me right.

I think I've got the basics right, because I've managed to get a compiled bibliography (once or twice...) But it screwed up my document font settings, because I didn't happen to want my References right at the end of the document. So, in the time honoured manner, I fiddled. Big mistake. All I did was change

\setuppublications[
...
        \c!voor\c!lijst={\csname\v!onderwerp\endcsname{References}
                         \switchtobodyfont[\v!klein]},
...]

to

\setuppublications[
...
        \c!voor\c!lijst={\csname\v!onderwerp\endcsname{References}},
...]

in m-bib.tex and recompile the format.

(1) Biggest problem is that \completepublications now puts 'References' but no entries. All the \cite commands produce the right results, and I have ...criterium=all... set. So what's happened?

(2) The thing that really irritated me was that the space after \cite[...] gets swallowed, so I end up with things like "...in (Searle, 1984)he says...". Changing 
\c!rechts={)}, 
to 
\c!rechts={) },
doesn't take into account punctuation after the closing parenthesis.

But what I'd really like to know is what all those \c! and \v! tags do, and what begincsname...endcsname is?

One final note. When the next version of m-bib.zip is posted, can we please know the proper file-placements?

This is what I kind of figured from an older distribution:

m-bib.tex --> texmf/tex/context/base
bib-apa.tex + *.bst --> texmf/tex/generic/context
m-bib.pdf --> texmf/doc/context/base

And do I need to create a format if I make changes to bib-apa, m-bib etc. ?

Kind Regards,
Christopher
