bib: getting a complete listing of the database, sorted by author

[Patrick Gundlach]

Hello (Taco?),

I'd like to get the list in the bibliography sorted by author. 

\setuppublications
  [alternative=apa,
     sorttype=bbl,
     criterium=all,
  ]

\setupbibtex
  [database=umbruchlit,
   sorttype=author]

does not do what I'd like. It lists the entries in the order of \cite.
And how do I get a complete list of publication? The criterium = all
should do what I need, but it doesn't.

Try this sequence opf commands instead
(not tested, but I have a sudden hunch that this will work):

   \setuppublications
      [alternative=apa]

    \setuppublications
      [sorttype=bbl,
       criterium=all]

(and if this works, then I've found the cause of almost all the recent
problems with 'criterium=all' etcetera).


The second one is easy: the keyword here is 'sort', not 'sorttype':

\setupbibtex
    [database=umbruchlit,
     sort=author]

Taco, this works for me. Glad this came up—I was going to inquire soon.
