Okay, I had this problem, too. If I find a reliable and comprehensive
source for how the AMS-style should look like, I'll try to implement it.
But currently I am not able to make too much sense out of what I find in
bibl-ams.tex. Maybe the reason for this is that I'm not much into
(plain) tex. But anyhow, when I stumble over a specification I'll send
it to the list.
Thank you,
Stefan.

Well, when bibl-ams.tex was written, there was no good specification
so I just implemented something based on some fuzzy examples. If you
(or anyone else for that matter) know how it should look, just send
a patch and it will be fixed.
Best wishes,
Taco

Hi,
I've encountered an issue with the AMS-style publication list (Mark IV). When the bibliography items in my document are typeset in the publication list, the attribute "pages" (from the .bib file; a range of pages is specified, e.g. "pages = {12--34}") is sometimes preceded by "p." (e.g. for "@incollection"), sometimes by "pp." (which I would think of being correct) and sometimes there is nothing (e.g. for "@article"): no "pp."/"p." and not even a point afterwards ending the bib item. Is this behaviour intended?
I took a look inside the file "bibl-ams.tex" where (afaik) the setup is defined. The calls of \insertpages there differ a lot:
\insertpages{, p. }{. }{. } %from book, l.203
\insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. } %from incollection, l.306
\insertpages{\unskip, }{}{} %from article, l.165
\insertpages{\unskip, \fixpp.~}{. }{\unskip. } %from inproceedings, l.344
It seems to me that the last one actually is what every call should look like. But maybe I'm getting this wrong.
Any suggestions and/or explanations appreciated.
Best regards,
Stefan.
