inserting additional text into BibTeX cites

inserting additional text into BibTeX cites

[Adam Lindsay]

Hi m-bib users,

I might have overlooked this, but how can I insert "arbitrary" text
inside a \cite[]?
I want to put page numbers inside the occasional citation (for verbatim
quotations).

I currently cite in authoryears format (Hoekwater, 1999), but for some
citations would like to insert text of the form (Hoekwater, 1999, pp. 5--9).

Can it be done? What have I ignored?

Thanks,
adam

Some time ago, I have used

\def\citeplus[#1][#2][#3]{%
   {%
      \setupcite[#1][right={, #3)}]%
      \cite[#1][#2]%
   }%
}

See \citeplus[authoryears][Miller89][pp.~7--10].

That seems very usable to me. Thanks!
