Hi all,
I've just uploaded
http://www.cybercomm.nl/~bittext/temp/m-bib.zip
The file contains m-bib.tex, m-bib.pdf, bibl-apa.tex, and 4 .bst files
for bibtex.
This is a very preliminary version of what will eventually hopefully
become a core part of Context: an interface to bibtex and a
standardized way of creating (scientific) publication lists. The
(still partial) documentation is in m-bib.pdf.
While I am still debugging and documenting this code, you are required
to use a \usemodule[bib] command to load the commands and you have to
run bibtex 'by hand'.
Request:
Please, if you are bored or intend to use this module in the future,
have a look at it and tell me what you think. It's a lot of code and
it's quite likely that there are still a (large ?) number of bugs in
it. DONT USE for production yet! I only uploaded this because I need
beta tester feedback.
The (currently only) defined reference style (bibl-apa) is more or
less apa-like, but I am well aware that there are some improvements
that should be made to that file. (set "criterium=all" in the example
below to see what I mean).
The current version is *not* multi-lingual (in fact it will only work
in the english version of context) and for some reason I don't yet
understand the 'normal' (non e-)TeX chokes on accents in stuff that
might end up as an argument to \cite.
I'll sort that out later. Right now I need a break from this (have not
done anything else the past week and it is starting to become severely
frustrating).
A very short synopsis:
% testfile.tex
%
\usemodule[bib]
\setuppublications[database=xampl,numbering=yes]
\starttext
author: \cite[author][article-full]
num: \cite[num][article-full]
\thepublications
\stoptext
%%
Calling order:
pdfetex \&cont-en testfile
bibtex testfile
pdfetex \&cont-en testfile
texutil --ref testfile
pdfetex \&cont-en testfile
Greetings,
Taco
