Bib-Module and ibid / ibidem

Bib-Module and ibid / ibidem

[Marcel Nohl]

Hello,

are there any plans for the bib-module to support ibid. citation, or is
someone actually working on it at the moment? If not, is someone using
a workaround for this?

Thanks in advance,
Marcel

If I understand you right, you want footnote citations with a special 
handling of repeated citations? In that case I indeed have a workaround. I 
attached it to this mail.

It will print out the first citation full (alternative=data), each further 
citation short (author, year and title) and each direct repetition with 
"Ebenda" (which is the German version of "ibidem", afaics). You can ofcourse 
change these strings, they are defined at the top of the file.

Examples:
  \mycite[some_bib_entry]
  \mycite[prefix={Vgl. }, page=123, chapter={Introduction},
   suffix={some more text.}][some_bib_entry]

I hope that helps.

Best regards,
Andreas.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.

No, but Andreas' workaround looks pretty good.

Best wishes,
Taco
