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 { Hi Thomas, Thomas A.Schmitz wrote: Taco,
just so you don't think nobody is interested in your new beta: I
dlded it today and played with it, but had to revert to the old
version because it somehow did not honor the modifications I made
to \setuppublicationlayout (I was getting some default instead of
my own version, and there were spurious periods and colons in all
the entries). I saw those in my (very small) example file as well, but that is
from a database that is known to have flaws so I didn't investigate
any further and just assumed that they were caused by broken input.
I will check again. I will test it again within the next few days. By the way: I
spent one hour last weekend and, by judiciously sprinkling some
\unskip's in my definitions, had gotten rid of the extra spaces.
I actually wanted to write to you about it this week... Don't you hate it when that happens? Meanwhile, the one thing that I find really disturbing is the
messed up vertical spacing. I'm doing my first real-life book
project with Context and your bib module. It won't be finished
before sometime next year, but expect me to come knockin' on your
door often. My bibliography is long (371 items), but fairly
regular, so I think everything else is working just fine, but I
can't give a pdf to the publisher where the lines are so
irregular. Any chance of you looking into that soon? The vertical spacing in my example looks ok, so perhaps it
something in your setup that messes it up hard (or something in
my setup that masks the problem). Can you send me an excerpt for
testing maybe? Cheers, Taco _______________________________________________
