A conference I have a paper accepted at insists that I embed my .bbl file (generated by bibtex) into by .tex file. This seems like a dumb requirement to me but I don't make the rules. I assume it's so they have to deal with only one file instead of two. Now, since I generate my .tex file from

Better still, I would like there to be a field in the .layout files where I can list the environments in the order I prefer them to be in. This would be particularly useful as different layouts sometimes have the same environments in different orders which can be confusing. Thanks Ralph
