Thanks for that. The problem here is that I use XML as the text source and
would like to be able to use 'authoryear', 'authoryears' as well
as 'mycite' occasionally, which I switch to and from by the 'opt' option in
e.g. 'cite id=hunt:86 opt=authoryear/'. If I understand your above
proposal correctly, I would have to literally call '\mycite[hunt:86]' on
the TeX level, and would have to abandon XML ... and thus the reason to
switch from LaTeX to ConTeXt to begin with - and nobody would want that ;0)
Could you - maybe - point me towards the more cumbersome 'official'
solution?
Thanks for your help,
Joh

What am I doing wrong? Outdated ContTeXt/bib module?

Hello again,
I have a matching rule for cite commands that look as follows:
cite id=hunt:86 opt=authoryear/
The rule is this (kudoos to Taco):
\defineXMLargument
[cite]
{\expanded{\cite[\XMLpar{cite}{opt}{}][\XMLpar{cite}{id}{}]}}
- reset opt, otherwise the previous one will be used when no opt is given
- \XMLop (own parameter) saves a few bytes and can be used here
\defineXMLargument
[cite]
[opt=]
{\expanded{\cite[\XMLop{opt}][\XMLop{id}]}}
Sometimes I would like to have the '(Hunt et. al., 1986)' produced by above
combination to look like '(see e.g. Hunt et. al., 1986)'. Taco pointed out
in response to a question to list that I could do that by handing
a 'left={(see e.g. }' to the cite command, however I fail to be able to do
that. A XML node like this
cite id=hunt:86 opt=authoryear,left={(see e.g.}/
results on compilation with above rule in the following error:
hm, the problem is that the { } are no longer tex's braces (grouping)
\starttext
\defineXMLcommand
[whatever]
[test=unknown]
{\XMLop{test}}
\startXMLdata
whatever test={\bf test}/
\stopXMLdata
\def\defXMLtex#1#2% the appended space will go away when
{\begingroup% \scantokens is fixed
\disableXML
\everyeof{\noexpand}% br's hack
\edef\ascii{#2}%
\edef\ascii{\scantokens\expandafter{\ascii}}% space appended
\expandafter\endgroup\expandafter\def\expandafter#1\expandafter{\ascii}}
\defineXMLcommand
[whatever]
[test=unknown]
{\defXMLtex\SomethingTex{\XMLop{test}}%
\SomethingTex}
\startXMLdata
whatever test={\bf test}/
\stopXMLdata
\stoptext
so, then you can for instance feed \SomethingTex into the scite macros
however, best is not to mix tex this way with xml
