urls longer than 57 characters fail in the bibliography

urls longer than 57 characters fail in the bibliography

[Michael Saunders]

\usemodule[bib]

\newcommand{\myurl}[2]{\useURL[#1][#2][][\hyphenatedurl{#2}]{\ss\from[#1]}}

\starttext
\cite[test]
\placepublications[criterium=all]
\stoptext

works with:

@BOOK{test,
  title = {test title},
  publisher = {test title},
  year = {2010},
  author = {test author},
  note = {\myurl{testurl}{123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567}}
}


but fails with:

note = {\myurl{testurl}{1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678}}

however, this \myurl statement works in the body.

this is a bibtex bug (just look at the generated bbl file and you will 
see what happened). I don't think there is anything that can be done
about the bibtex output, so you will probably have to define the url
as a macro outside of the bib file

Best wishes,
Taco

Which may be fixed in BibTeX 0.99d (included in TL2010).

What's more: TeXLive will also include 'bibtexu' which supports utf-8,
solving the 'invalid UTF-8 character'  error you can get with normal
bibtex when using non-ascii characters in names.

I haven't tested that yet, but it sounds promising.

Best wishes,
Taco
