Hi,
I've been wondering whether someone (perhaps Taco?) can give me a hint on the following:
1. Is there an automated way to place citations into footnotes? So whenever I use \cite in the running text it should produce a footnote with the reference alongside the usual footnotes. However, when \cite is invoked within a footnote it should just type out the reference inline (in the footnote, of course ;-). So far I've done this manually with \footnote{\cite{key}} (which at times produced its own strange results like two footnote blocks on the same page).
There is no other way. If you strangeness as a result from this, then it is a bug in the footnote handling that is (should be) unrelated to the bibliography module.
2. When typesetting a quotation block I'd like to add a reference directly after the closing quotation marks. However, including the \cite command before \stopquotation places the reference before the closing marks, and moving \cite out of the \start \stop block makes the reference appear on a new line ...
The next solution is a bit rude, but works: % First define an internal version of quotations. It will % typeset the contents of the macro \MyMagic at the end, % just after the symbol. % \definedelimitedtext [myquotation] [left={\symbol[leftquotation]}, right={\symbol[rightquotation]\MyMagic}, leftmargin=standard] % And this is simply a wrapper for ease of use % \long\def\startcitedquotation[#1]#2\stopcitedquotation {\bgroup \def\MyMagic{~\cite[#1]} \startmyquotation #2\stopmyquotation \egroup} % usage: \starttext \startcitedquotation[schmitz2006] overly beautiful pusillanimous sesquipedalian longwinded \stopcitedquotation \stoptext Best, Taco
