I'm figuring out complex citation objects with prefixes and suffixes and multiple keys, and found that not all styles export properly (from what I understand). Here's an Org file that runs through all the citation styles (the Basic.bib is below). Each citation object has a global prefix ("Citing") and global suffix ("is duplication") and the second citation has a local prefix ("and") and local suffix ("also").
# ---------- #+bibliography: Basic.bib #+cite_export: basic Default: [cite:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Author: [cite/a:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Note: [cite/ft:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Nocite (should be blank): [cite/n:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Noauthor: [cite/na:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Numeric (should "use global affixes and ignore local ones"): [cite/nb:Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] Text: [cite/t: Citing ; @friends; and @friends also; is duplication.] # ---------- Export that and you will see some bugs. Default, nocite and numeric look correct, but author and noauthor are missing all the surrounding text (I don't see anything in oc-basic.el about why it shouldn't be there), and in note and text "also" should be outside the brackets. # ---------- Default: (Citing van Dongen, M.R.C., 2012, and van Dongen, M.R.C., 2012 also is duplication.) Author: van Dongen, M.R.C., van Dongen, M.R.C. Note:[1] Nocite (should be blank): Noauthor: (2012, 2012) Numeric (should "use global affixes and ignore local ones"): (Citing 1, 1 is duplication.) Text: Citing van Dongen, M.R.C. (2012), and van Dongen, M.R.C. (2012 also) is duplication. Footnotes _________ [1] Citing van Dongen, M.R.C. (2012), and van Dongen, M.R.C. (2012 also) is duplication. # ---------- Thanks for looking, Bill Basic.bib is still: @book{friends, title = {{{LaTeX}} and Friends}, author = {van Dongen, M.R.C.}, date = {2012}, location = {Berlin}, publisher = {Springer}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-23816-1}, isbn = {9783642238161} } -- William Denton https://www.miskatonic.org/ Librarian, artist and licensed private investigator.
