bib module -- \maybeyear

bib module -- \maybeyear

[Robin.Kirkham]

Hi all,

I'm using numerical citations and reference lists, and I have the bib module doing almost everything I want, except that the years in the reference list have a, b, c ... appended.

On this mailing list, it was suggested that "maybeyear=off" as an argument to \setuppublicationslist should do it, but it does not seem to. The discussion on that topic seems unresolved.

I've also tried \def\maybeyear#1{} in a few places, which does not help either.

I'm using ConTeXt  ver: 2007.01.02 13:44 MK II  fmt: 2007.1.8  int: english/english. It's my first ConTeXt project. Am I doing something wrong? Program below.

Robin

The solution is really simple. Move the closing
bracket to the previous line, like so:

   \setuppublicationlist[
     authoretallimit=100,
     artauthoretallimit=100,
     maybeyear=off]

otherwise you assign the value "off<nl>" to maybeyear.
This is true throughout context: you have to be careful
about whitespace in arguments.

Best, Taco

OK ... or terminate the argument with a % or a , ... of course I should have guessed this!

Many thanks,

Robin
