Feature-Request: Sort bibliography entries in alphabetical order by the entries' “short” value

Feature-Request: Sort bibliography entries in alphabetical order by the entries' “short” value

[Michael Scholtz]

Hi,

the publication list can be configured with `\setuppublications` to be sorted by cite order (`sorttype=cite`) or the order of the publication entries (`sorttype=bbl`).

With the following setup the "short names" of the publication entries are used for cite references:

    \setuppublications[
        criterium=text,
        sorttype=cite,  % <– "short"?
        refcommand=short,  
        numbering=short,  
        ...
    ]

The short names are set using the `s` attribute:

    \startpublication[
      s={RFC2616},
      ...
    ]
      ...
    \stoppublication

A cite with this setup would look like "[RFC2616]".

In a long bibliography list it is useful if the entries are sorted in alphabetical order by these short names to allow a faster lookup of publications.

Currently I'm using the "filter" module and a Tcl script to sort the publication entries ( http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/126939/7074 ), but it might be useful if something like a `sorttype=short` option would be added.

Regards,
Michael

I added 'short' as sorttype .. untested as no example.
