Hi,
I mentioned this in an earlier e-mail but thought that now might be a good
time to describe this issue in detail. I'd like to define a new
authorconversion that renders the first author in a list differently than
the remaining authors in the list. Specifically, I'd like to use the
"inverted" authorconversion for the first author and the "normal"
authorconversion for the rest.
In the newer bibl-bib.lua file, I can see what I might have to modify to
accomplish this (I added the if combiner == "invertedfirst" block):
```
function authors.concat(author,combiner,what,settings)
if type(combiner) == "string" then
combiner = authors[combiner or "normal"] or authors.normal
end
local split = splitauthors(author)
local setting = settings[what]
local etallimit, etaldisplay, etaltext = 1000, 1000, ""
if setting then
etallimit = settings.etallimit or 1000
etaldisplay = settings.etaldisplay or etallimit
etalltext = settings.etaltext or ""
end
local max = #split
if max > etallimit and etaldisplay < max then
max = etaldisplay
end
if combiner == "invertedfirst" then
for i=1,max do
if i == 1 then
split[i] = authors.inverted(split[i],settings)
else
split[i] = authors.normal(split[i],settings)
end
end
else
for i=1,max do
split[i] = combiner(split[i],settings)
end
end
local result = bibtexconcat(split,settings)
if max < #split then
return result
else
return result .. etaltext
end
end
```
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to do anything. It's not clear to me
how bibl-bib.lua and bibl-bib.mkiv are being used by the other publication
support modules, if they're being used at all (publ-ini.mkiv doesn't appear
to register it, anyway). Is there another file I'd have to change to make
"invertedfirst" a working authorconversion? Is there a similar block of
code in publ-ini.lua where I should be implementing this change instead?
Thanks!
Joey

All right, I figured out where I needed to make this change for it to take
effect. The relevant script is publ-aut.lua. The code I needed to change
was for the "oneauthor" function definition, which itself is located in the
"btxauthor" function definition. My changes are detailed below:
```
local function oneauthor(i,last,justone)
local author = split[i]
if index then
ctx_btxstartauthor(i,1,0)
elseif last then
ctx_btxstartauthor(i,1,0)
ctx_btxsetconcat(0)
if combiner == "invertedfirst" then
if i == 1 then
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant("inverted")
else
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant("normal")
end
else
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant(combiner)
end
else
local state = author.state or 0
ctx_btxstartauthor(i,max,state)
ctx_btxsetconcat(concatstate(i,max))
if combiner == "invertedfirst" then
if i == 1 then
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant("inverted")
else
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant("normal")
end
else
ctx_btxsetauthorvariant(combiner)
end
end
local initials = author.initials
if initials and #initials > 0 then
ctx_btxsetinitials() --
(concat(the_initials(initials,symbol)," "))
end
local firstnames = author.firstnames
if firstnames and #firstnames > 0 then
ctx_btxsetfirstnames() -- (concat(firstnames," "))
end
local vons = author.vons
if vons and #vons > 0 then
ctx_btxsetvons() -- (concat(vons," "))
end
local surnames = author.surnames
if surnames and #surnames > 0 then
ctx_btxsetsurnames() -- (concat(surnames," "))
end
local juniors = author.juniors
if juniors and #juniors > 0 then
ctx_btxsetjuniors() -- (concat(juniors," "))
end
if not index and i == max then
if split.others then
ctx_btxsetoverflow(1)
else
local overflow = #split - max
if overflow > 0 then
ctx_btxsetoverflow(overflow)
end
end
end
if combiner == "invertedfirst" then
if i == 1 then
ctx_btxsetup("inverted")
else
ctx_btxsetup("normal")
end
else
ctx_btxsetup(combiner)
end
ctx_btxstopauthor()
end
```
I'll admit that the addition of entire if-else blocks around whether or not
the combiner is a specific value may not be the best practice in terms of
future maintenance (especially if similar index-dependent
authorconversions are needed in the future). Alternatively, the
"btxauthor" function could populate a "combiners" array of length "max"
with a specific authorconversion for each author in the split; for most
authorconversions, all entries in this array would be the same, but for
authorconversions like "invertedfirst", the first entry would be different
from the rest. Then, the "oneauthor" function could just reference
combiners[i] instead of combiner.

Good suggestion! I removed my changes to publ-aut.lua for now and tried
adding each of the two setups you described to publ-imp-author.mkvi (where
it seemed to fit best). But simply specifying
```
\definebtx
[sbl:\s!list:author]
[sbl:\s!list]
[\c!authorconversion=invertedfirst]
```
in my custom rendering file does not access the invertedfirst setup,
regardless of which of the two setups I use. Do I have to do something
different to access it?
Thanks!

Looks like it was just a small oversight on my part; I had to make sure I
added a corresponding \s!btx:\s!list:\s!author:invertedfirst setup for list
entries. Here's what finally works:
```
\startsetups \s!btx:\s!cite:\s!author:invertedfirst
\ifnum\currentbtxauthorindex>\plusone
\fastsetup{\s!btx:\s!cite:\s!author:normal}
\else
\fastsetup{\s!btx:\s!cite:\s!author:inverted}
\fi
\stopsetups
...
\startsetups \s!btx:\s!list:\s!author:invertedfirst
\ifnum\currentbtxauthorindex>\plusone
\fastsetup{\s!btx:\s!list:\s!author:normal}
\else
\fastsetup{\s!btx:\s!list:\s!author:inverted}
\fi
\stopsetups
```
Thanks again, Hans!
