Hello,
I wonder if it is possible to display several publication lists. Can we
achieve this with the bib module? What I would like to do is to split the
publication list into different sections, like this:
\section{Bibliography}
\subsection{Specifications}
... Here are the list of publications that are specifications ...
\subsection{Manuals}
... Here some manuals ...
Regards,
BG

Hm, I think it could be interesting to add such a feature to context, but
I understand it cannot be done immediately. Latex already have such things
(chapterbib, bibtopic) and IMHO there is a real need for this.

Sure. Can you point me to the documentation of 'bibtopic' and also
propose a calling / configuration syntax for the ConTeXt version?
(it is easier for me if I know what to work towards)
Cheers, Taco

I don't know if it's doable or if it breaks the consistency of the current
interface, but I would see something like the list mechanism:
\definebiblist[name][\setupbiblist options]
\setupbiblist[name][\setuppublicationlist options]
\setupbibfile[name][\setupbibtex options]
\placebiblist[name]
\definecombinedbiblist[bibgroup][biblist list][\setupcombinedlist options]
\setupcombinedlist[bibgroup][ not yet clear what options it should provide
]
\startbibentry[name][\startpublication options]
\setupcite[name][what][options] (name optional)
\cite[name][what][ref] or \cite[what][name:ref] (name optional)
To keep the current interface, a default global publication list could
exist:
\setuppublicationlist = \setupbiblist[publication]
\startpublication = \startbibentry[publication]
\placepublications = \placebiblist[publication]
\setupbibtex = \setupbibfile[publication]
Example of use:
% the specs come only from bibtex files
\definebiblist[specs][criterium=all]
\setupbibtex[specs][database={spec1,spec2},sort=short]
\definebiblist[manuals][criterium=all]
\setupbibtex[manuals][database=manbase,sort=short]
% also an embedded definition for the manuals
\startbibentry[manuals][k=me,t=manual,a=Hoekwater,y=2006]
\author[]{Taco}[T.]{}{Hoekwater}
\title{Publication Module}
\stopbibentry
% all the biblio stuff
\definecombinedbiblist[allbibs][specs,manuals][criterium=all]
% let's go
\starttext
\chapter{The doc}
\section{References in the chapter}
\subsection{Specifications}
\placebiblist[specs][criterium=cite]
\subsection{Manuals}
\placebiblist[manuals][criterium=local]
\section{Introduction}
As explained in \cite[manuals][key][me]...
\chapter{References Summary}
\placecombinedlist[allbibs]
\stoptext
What is not clear for me:
- if the bibentry numbering must be global or could restart to 1 for each
list,
- if it is really feasible to place the biblists several times in the doc,
and if so, to which list the \cite actually points to.
I hope that all of this doesn't sound too stupid :-)

BG

Ok, I can wait. If I can help by testing some beta releases of the module,
tell me.
