May be I should have tried it first, before editting about 200 entries as you
suggested. As far as I can judge from the timestamp, at my system the bbl file
is generatet every time I run texexec. Have I missed something?
Thanks

Oh boy, I am sorry! My fault! The *correct* recipe is: run once, so the
bbl exists, then delete the \setupbibtex line from your source, then
edit the bbl, then recompile.
Feeling stupid,
Taco

Thanks. This works now. I wrote a little python script now to save time and
thought maybe someone else might need it as well. It works for me but it was
just a quick shot. There was not much time to think about all possibilities,
and may be the regular expressions need to be modified. I first need to get this
thesis finished. So no guarantee.
All the best
Hubertus

It's better if it's in luatex .

Patch the generated .bbl file by hand. after its initial creation, it
will not be modified by context itself anymore.
Best wishes,
Taco

Dear Mailinglist,
I use the excellent BibTex module with this setup:
\setupbibtex[database=biblio,sort=author]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa,refcommand=short,sorttype=bbl,criterium=cited]
So if I have something like this
@ARTICLE{Akimoto2005,
author = {R. Akimoto and B. S. Li and K. Akita and T. Hasama},
...
}
in my *.bib file, the \cite[Akimoto2005] results in [ALAH05]. Is there a way to
get only the first author with three letters and the year ([Aki05]) in the
citation?
Help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Hubertus
