creating a Bibtex bibliography for copernicus publication
Hi, I'm writing a journal for submission to copernicus for publication. I have the style files and the template working on lyx but as soon I add a citation for the bibliography and attempt to create a pdf with it, lyx stops responding. There is a note on the template stating that bibtex will not work for copernicus version 2.3, yet I've been using 2.5 with no luck. can anyone help?

Re: Completely removing BibTeX bibliography header

Hello,
I'd like to completely remove the automatic header placed before a

I know that by inserting \renewcommand\refname{} I can redefine the

style I am using) a "bar" which is inserted before top level sections.
The only way to do this, I believe, is to redefine the bibliography
environment to omit that stuff. Basically, what you want to do is copy
the definition of the \thebibliography environment to your preamble and
then modify it. E.g., this is the definition in article.cls:
\newenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
{\section*{\refname}%
\@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\refname}{\MakeUppercase\refname}%
\list{\@biblabel{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
{\settowidth\labelwidth{\@biblabel{#1}}%
\leftmargin\labelwidth
\advance\leftmargin\labelsep
\@openbib@code
\usecounter{enumiv}%
\let\p@enumiv\@empty
\renewcommand\theenumiv{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
\sloppy
\clubpenalty4000
\@clubpenalty \clubpenalty
\widowpenalty4000%
\sfcode`\.\@m}
{\def\@noitemerr
{\@latex@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
\endlist}
So we would change it to "renewenvironment" and then remove the
\section* part. You'd probably want to replace it, though, with
something like \vspace{1cm}, or some such thing, to get a bit of some
vertical space there. Otherwise, the bibliography will look like the
next paragraph of the paper. If you're using a book-like class, and
what's there is \chapter*, then probably you would want to force a new
page with \clearpage or \cleardoublepage.

Completely removing BibTeX bibliography header

Re: Can't insert BibTeX Bibliography; TeXFiles.py fails.
What happens if you open a DOS window in the \Resources\scripts directory and run TeXFiles.py there? (If Python files are properly registered -- meaning they show up in Explorer with a Python icon, which I won't even attempt to describe -- you can just type 'TeXFiles.py ' to run it; otherwise, you'll need to run 'python TeXFiles.py', and maybe supply the path to python.exe.) Also, when you click Tools > TeX Information, is the file list empty? /Paul
Re: Can't insert BibTeX Bibliography; TeXFiles.py fails.
Thanks Richard, I just reinstalled LyX using LyX-1.6.8-2-Installer.exe but I'm still having the same problem. I also checked to make sure TeXFiles.py file is there, which it is. I also noticed the same error happens when I go to Tools > TeX Information. Any suggestions? Should I try installing a full version of python?

Thanks a lot for your help. I must say that after seeing the first
answer yesterday I tried it and it worked so I didn't check again my
email until now. I couldn't imagine that it would start such a discussion :)
So the solution I used was:
"\usepackage[english]{babel} \addto\captionsenglish
{\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}}"
And it worked as expected. Julio was right, I speak french but in this
case I'm writing my thesis in english but the general solution is
appreciated since I may need to use french sometime.

I was just offering another way to 'skin a cat'. But, yes the solution
I offered *DOES* work.
Aren't the babel steps only necessary if you need to directly specify
a language other than English? As the babel package is loaded by
default in LyX and I don't need to specify language options for
English documents.

I don't understand this discussion. My post explains how this can be done. You solution doesn't work
because you don't take care of babel.

Re: Bibtex bibliography
In a Koma-Script report, adding these two lines in ERT just before the
Bibliography widget works for me. It also adds the References page number to
the Table of Contents at the Section size and indentation level. The first
line is slightly different from what Rich suggested, and I did not test his
suggestion.
\renewcommand\bibname{References}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{References}
As Uwe noted, whether this works may vary depending on what document class
you are using.

You're right. This must have been left over code from when I was
trying to format my thesis using different classes.
However, changing it to:
\renewcommand\refname{Test}
works for article classes. And
\renewcommand\bibname{Test}
works for report and book classes. Which is what I think you were

Well, that's astonishing, because it shouldn't work. And it doesn't for
me. I've attached a .lyx file with your suggestion and the report class
(KOMA-Script), and it does not work here, i.e. the bibliography still is
named 'Bibliography'.

Well, it's no technical issue. It just doesn't work the way you
described it, and I don't know how you made it work, but surely not that
way.

I'm just giving Jean-Michel advise as to what worked for me and that
command works for:
article
article (AMS)
article (KOMA-Script)
article (APA)
report
report (KOMA-Script)
book
book (KOMA-Script)
book (Memoir)
So, I think it will be sufficient to accomplish the task for him.
Whether it's technically the correct way of approaching the solution
is another topic and he can choose how he would like to solve it.

When you are using a book or report class, add this to your document preamble:
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\addto\captionsenglish {\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}}
When you are using an article clas, use
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\addto\captionsenglish {\renewcommand{\refname}{References}}
When your document language is e.g. Frech, replace "english" by "french" in the
above commands.

I've also tried creating a completely new file with only the list of citations in it. Still no dice. No matter what combo of things I try (including trying most of the styles) I cannot get the Content option to be anything other than grayed out. Also, I have no option in the View menu for Source. Does that indicate I am missing some options? Thanks for the help! Andrew

Crash when BibTex Bibliography file not accessible
Hi I just found a bug which causes a crash. I created a document with a bibtex bibliography on one computer and send it for review to somebody else. But LyX crashed as soon as she scrolled over the first page (last lines of debug output below). Solution: By changing the bib file to the one on her computer, it worked. I'll check if it is already in bugzilla and will log it if not there yet Rainer Paint inset fully #Looking for 78,165 in 0,166of type 0 . terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::filesystem::filesystem_error' what(): boost::filesystem::last_write_time: "/home/rkrug/Documents/Publications/ReprintCollection.bib": Permission denied -- Rainer M.

Re: Bibtex bibliography formatting
Thanks to Jürgen: the way to achive what I was looking
for was to highlight the "BibTeX Generated References"
box in Lyx and set it to single spacing through Layout
> Paragraph > Line Spacing. Then, adding:
\setlength\bibsep{\baselineskip}
to the preamble took care of the space between
entries. Thanks for the help to everyone who replied.

Re: Bibtex bibliography formatting
That is useful, but it did not solve my problem. This utility allows for the formatting of bibliography entries, but nowhere was there an option to put a blank line between single-spaced bibliography entries. Any other ideas?

Have a look at the \bibsep length (natbib documentation). E.g., add to your
preamble:
\setlength\bibsep{\baselineskip}

Bibtex bibliography formatting
Hi, I need a specific type of formatting for my bibliography (non-negotiable, required for my dissertation, which is due --right now--). Between each entry in the bibliography, which is single spaced, I need a single blank space. The bibliography uses Bibtex (at the end, there is a gray box labeled "BibTeX Generated References"), the authordate2 style, and Natbib. The bibliography comes out fine; I can make it single-spaced, double-spaced, etc. by highlighting the gray box and selecting layout > paragraph > (spacing). However, I haven't been able to get spaces between the single-spaced entries. Layout > Document > Layout > (single spacing, "skip" button checked) gets me the right look in the document, but the bibliography remains untouched. Any advice? Ugly hacks welcome.

bibtex bibliography in TOC
Hi, How do I insert a reference to a Bibtex bibliography in the Table of Contents of a report. I tried using an \addcontentsline command (with the proper arguments) right before the icon for the Bibtex generated references, but that inserted a reference in the table of contents with a page number which was the last page of the final chapter. Thanks. Matt Zeidenberg University of Wisconsin
