BibTeX support in CONTEXT

BibTeX support in CONTEXT

[Marc van Dongen]

Dear all,

Is there a mechanism for citations (something like
\cite) and the use of BibTeX like bibliography
files in Context?

Regards,

Marc van Dongen

Well it is planed to support BibTeX (not exactly like LaTeX does, but similar).

The beta version is available at
http://www.cybercomm.nl/~bittext/temp/m-bib.zip, but I think it only supports
cont-en and has other limitations. (In the zip file there is the module, three
bst and the pdf'ed commented source of the tex file.)

Well these entries can be created using BibTeX and the mentioned bst.
(Ups, I haven't realised that the \startpublication command is available in
standard TeX, so you may try this commands as well.)

Not really. There is an unsupported \startpublicatie. Use it like this:

\starttext

\chapter{Test}

See~\publicatie[Bekke92].

\chapter{References}

\startpublicatie[Bekke92]
  \naam{J.H.~ter~Bekke}
  \titel{Semantic Data Modeling}
  \jaar{1992}
  \plaats{Hemel Hempstead}
  \uitgever{Prentice Hall}
\stoppublicatie

\startpublicatie[Bekke93]
  \naam{J.H.~ter~Bekke}
  \titel{Database ontwerp (Dutch)}
  \jaar{1993}
  \plaats{Deventer}
  \uitgever{Kluwer Bedrijfswetenschappen}
\stoppublicatie

\startpublicatie[Bekke94]
  \naam{J.H.~ter~Bekke}
  \titel{Handleiding Xplain DBMS, versie 4.5}
  \jaar{1994}
  \plaats{Delft}
  \uitgever{Faculteit der Technische Wiskunde en Informatica, vakgroep
  Informatiesystemen, groep Database Systemen}
\stoppublicatie

\stoptext

Works good enough for now, so no wait until bibliography is reimplemented.

Groetjes,

Berend. (-:
