bib module: author-date macros

bib module: author-date macros

[Idris Samawi Hamid]

Here are some macros that I use; I was wondering if the new bib module has a 
better way to implement the following, since this sort of thing is used quite 
frequently in the author-date system that t-bib defaults to. See the examples 
in the following file (three depend on \cite[year] which has a problem--see 
previous mail).

I would really appreciate suggestions for improving this-)

Best
Idris

Hi,

The beta allows:

   \def\citeauthoryear[#1]{%
     \cite[alternative=authoryears,right={)},inbetween={ }][#1]%
   }

   \def\citeauthoryearpage[#1][#2]{%
    \cite[alternative=authoryears,extras={, #2}][#1]%
   }

etc.
And, especially now that the syntax is that much cleaner, I don't
really want to add such convenience macros to the module.

Cheers,

Taco

Vowels with accent (teTeX - Linux)

[Jilani Khaldi]

Hi All,
using ConTeXt under Linux (teTeX - Slackware  10.2)  vowels with accent, 
like è, à, ... are not printed out.
What am I missing?
Thanks!

jk

ps.
Vowels with accent are printed out under Windows and MikTeX

I don't know which "input encoding" do you use ? Me, I use always
UTF-8 for all my ConTeXt doc here and I have ALWAYS all accented
characters on it ;-)

Nothings to see with LOCALE of your Linux box! I product my vietnamese
PDF (by using UTF-8 input encoding) on my "en_US locale" Linux box ;-)

I used:

\enableregime[utf]
\setupencoding[default=t5]

For UTF-8 input encoding with T5 for vietnamese.

\enableregime[il1] % il = iso-latin-1; change it
% based on the encoding you use in your editor
