Subject: Problem with the bib module (yeah, so what else is new)
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2005 18:17:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050330161729.GE5793@puritan.pcp.ath.cx> (raw)
OK, another one of those "hey, the bib module has an issue"-kind of
mails. The problem is that \bibdoif and its relatives don't work.
They always evaluate to true. I have tried to figure out why this is
so, but I'm just not good enough at reading TeX macros (yet). The main
problem is that I want to do something like this for my
\setuppublicationlist:
\doglobal\newif\ifBIBLoutputbeforesurname
\global\BIBLoutputbeforesurnamefalse
\def\BIBLwholename#1#2#3#4#5%
{\bibdoif{#1}{#1\unskip\bibalternative\c!firstnamesep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
\bibdoif{#4}{#4\unskip\bibalternative\c!firstnamesep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
\bibdoif{#2}{#2\unskip\bibalternative\c!vonsep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
\ifBIBLoutputbeforesurname \else
\unskip%
\BIBLoutputbeforesurnamefalse%
\fi
#3\bibalternative\c!surnamesep%
\bibdoif{#5}{#5\unskip}}
The problem is that one can't have
\author[]{}[]{}{Organization}
without extra spaces appearing before the Organization. Another issue is that
extra spaces occur between the first and last name in the \normalauthor
style,
