Subject: Beta bib module release
Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2005 15:02:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <433942FD.50903@elvenkind.com> (raw)
Hi,
I have prepared a beta release of the bibliography module,
and uploaded it as
http://tex.aanhet.net/bib/m-bib-beta-20050927.zip
Because it is only a beta, I have not fixed the documentation yet.
The differences between this version and the one in the ConTeXt
distribution are outlined below.
I know that the wishlist is quite long, and there are even still
bugs I have not looked into, but I have to release *something*
otherwise nothing will ever happen. Somehow I never seem to get
around to working on the module. :-(
Comments (and testfiles) are welcome, and feel free to update
the wishlist on the wiki :

Happy TeXing, Taco
==============================================
Bugfixes:
* The extra spaces in the output of authors and editors
inside the publication list should be gone.
* \newbibfield now works as advertised
* It is possible to use context commands with the same
name as a bib fieldname inside the arguments of the
fields. This now compiles correctly:
\startpublication[k=garden,t=misc,a={Wiki people}]
\thekey{Wiki people}
\title{The \type{\ConTeXt} garden}
\note{See also \useurl[pedia]{http://wikipedia.com}\url[pedia]}
\url{http://wiki.contextgarden.net}
\stoppublication
New features:
* Two new styles are now part of the distribution:
bibl-apa-de.tex and bibl-ssa.tex
* \cite now accepts \setupcite arguments in the
optional argument, so you can do stuff like
\cite[right={, chapter 5)}][key]
The commands
\cite[alternative=author][key]
and
\cite[author][key]
are equivalent
* The bibtex fields URL and LASTCHECKED have been added
to the bst files.
* Two new \setupcite arguments 'andtext' and 'otherstext'
have been added, and the language-dependancy of the bst
files has been removed.
* There is a new type of \citation:
\cite[url][key]
It does not do any kind of interaction, if you want that
you have to wrap the \cite in another command. Internally,
this uses the new 'u=' argument to \startpublication.
* Also, \cite[doi][key] now actually does generate the doi in
the text (this uses the 'o=' argument to \startpublication)
* Finally, you can get selected data bits from a publication
by using
\getcitedata [url] [garden] to \gardenlink
(in this case, \gardenlink will be \def-ed to the value
of the \url{..} field in the bib item with label 'garden').
Discontinued:
* I have removed t-bibltx.tex. All it did was define the
\newcommand command, and you are better off using the
new latex emulation module for that.
* I dropped support for the INSTITUTE field in bibtex
(it was never actually used anyway)
