m-bib and numeric references

m-bib and numeric references

[Maarten Sneep]

Hi,

I use the bibliography module for my references, and I have trouble 
setting it up like I want it.

1) I want to use numeric references, like [1] in the text. I'm getting 
a nice numbered list,
    but no numbers in the text, just [??]. What do I do wrong, according 
to the docs this should work.

Below are the relevant lines from my setup:

% bibliography
\setupbibtex[database={ljname,references},sort=no]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa]
\setuppublications[sorttype=cite, criterium=used, numbering=yes, 
autohang=yes, refcommand=num]
\setupcite[num][compress=yes,pubsep={, },lastpubsep={, 
},inbetween={--},left={[}, right={]}]
\setupheadtext[en][pubs=Bibliography]

2) A minor other question, how do I right-align the numbers in the 
list, like
  ..
  ..
  8.
  9.
10.
11.
...

you get the idea ;-)

Regards,

Maarten

Hi again,

I don't like follow ups to one's own post, but anyway:

I get warnings in my log file:
     publications   : warning: cite argument rayleigh1899 unknown on 27
etc.

When using non-numeric references, I do not get these warnings. All 
data seems to be there in the tuo file.

Not solved (still looking, but help is appreciated).

Solved.

3) Discovered a new problem: The whole thesis is set on a grid. But the 
bibliography silently ignores the grid. Where do I start to look?
