Hello,

what is the recommended way to get the following:

   as is written in Ref.~4.

Using Ref.~\cite[four] gives "Ref. [4]" with the superfluous brackets.
(\cite[ref] should remain unmodified, ie with brackets, as this is
mostly used in texts [1-5,7].)

APS' revtex offers \onlinecite (Ref.~\onlinecite{four}) to obtain the
reference number without the brackets.

   \def\onlinecite#1{\cite[left=,right=][#1]}

But are you sure the macro should not be called \inlinecite ?

Cheers, Taco

I'm not sure how it should be called, however, in APS' RevTeX it is
called \onlinecite (as the number is not a superscript but on the line).
(Thanks for the reminder to use \cite[left=...][]. I was thinking only
of \setupcite[num][left=...]; now wikified)
