Hi, I wonder if the following is a design decision in the default bib style for utils::cite().
Create a bibentry object: > bibs <- bibtex::read.bib(package = "tools") > bibs Murdoch D (2009). "Parsing Rd files." <URL: http://developer.r-project.org/parseRd.pdf>. When an entry is cited with with a text to include with argument `after', I would expect a comma after the year, but both textual and parenthesised citation include only a space delimiter: > cite("murdoch:2009", bib = bibs, after = "section 2", textual = TRUE) [1] "Murdoch (2009 section 2)" > cite("murdoch:2009", bib = bibs, after = "section 2") [1] "(Murdoch 2009 section 2)" Is this intended? Including the comma in `after' doesn't help, since the space is before it: > cite("murdoch:2009", bib = bibs, after = ", section 2", textual = TRUE) [1] "Murdoch (2009 , section 2)" > cite("murdoch:2009", bib = bibs, after = ", section 2") [1] "(Murdoch 2009 , section 2)" Georgi Boshnakov [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
