Hi Taco,
(probably a question mainly for you)
I want to pass extra information to the \cite command, e.g. page numbers
when citing a book. I didn't find a predefined way to do this in
bibmod.pdf, and at the moment I'm using the following definition
\def\citeplus[#1][#2][#3]{%
{%
\setupcite[#1][right={, #3)}]%
\cite[#1][#2]%
}%
}
and then, for example,
\citeplus[authoryears][SomeBook][S.~100]
This is of course not very elegant, so is there a better way? If not, I
think the facility should be provided somehow in future versions of m-bib.
Apropos m-bib, there are those unresolved problems:
\setupbibtex[sort=author] has no effect, and \cite[Xyz97] without the first
(optional) argument gobbles the following space (just to remind you, I can
work around it).
Ah, and another question (didn't try myself yet): If I want to use -- for
page ranges, but I have pages={10-20} in my bib file, can this be done at
the bibl-xxx.tex level? Or is it easier to change the cont-xx.bst file?
Similar: what about a point after the title in the bib file, which I would
like to remove because a point is added when typesetting the list of
publications?
