Owen,
Try putting the following snippet in your .tex file. I tested it in
BibDesk's TeX preview template with a couple of styles, and it appears to do
what you want.
%%%% cut here
\usepackage{paralist}
\makeatletter
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
{\section*{\refname}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\begin{inparaenum}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\leftmargin\labelwidth
\advance\leftmargin\labelsep
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@code
\usecounter{enumiv}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@empty
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@enumiv}}%
\sloppy
\clubpenalty4000
[EMAIL PROTECTED] \clubpenalty
\widowpenalty4000%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
\endlist\end{inparaenum}}
\renewcommand\newblock{}
\makeatother
%%%% cut here
This should give you some ideas anyway; it's the bibliography definition
from article.cls, with the list environment modified using the paralist
package.

Adam
