Hi Taco,
disregard most of what I wrote yesterday: most of your new module is
working fine, thanks so much! Haven't tested the new features yet, but
will very soon. I'm especially thrilled by the \cite[right=] command
and hope it works!
One major (but probably easy-to-fix) problem is that your wonderfully
clear syntax {<before}{<after>}{<instead>} isn't working anymore.
Here's an example. I have this line in my setup for books:
\insertseries{ (}{), }{, }%
which used to work: if the entry has information about the series, put
it in parentheses and append a comma, if it doesn't, just put the
comma. With the new module, I get an extra (), after every title, and
the same is true for other constructs.
I have found this bug, and uploaded a new beta:
http://tex.aanhet.net/bib/m-bib-beta-20050929.zip
The output here looks a whole lot better now.
One question: in the parsed bbl file, the bibtex field "address" is
translated into "city," "publisher" into "pubname," and "year" into
"pubyear." Is there a reason for this? I found it a bit confusing
because you have a macro \insertpublisher which inserts "city,
pubname"; coming from the names in the database, I couldn't figure out
what was happening until I looked at the source. Would it be possible
to just keep the fieldnames as bibtex has them?
I did this originally to be compatible with the old context
publications macros as well as the base tex definition of \year,
and I guess it is no longer safe to change the names now. I bit
of a mistake, in hindsight. :-(
As for the vertical spacing problem: depending on the font and the
settings for interlinespace, it is more or less visible. To see a
really clear case, try setting the interlinespace to something really
big like 5ex, then you can see that space within the entries is regular
while space between entries is somewhat smaller.
Not over here. with \showgrid on, everything is precisely lined up.
That's why I really need an example of what you are doing.
Cheers, Taco
