publications in footnotes (new bibliography mkiv)
I have to prepare a paper in literary science. I need to be able to quote a reference in a footnote instead of a in-text reference. Such a footnote should look the same or similar as the entry in the publications list. I guess that I have to do \setupbtxcitevariant and \definebtxcitevariant but then I am stuck. It would be great if one could put a separate page number/range for every footnote. Is there maybe already a mechanism for that? Greetings Jörg
At least I have found a workaround for that problem:
I will render my complete publications list for the paper by using
\placebtxrendering[method=dataset]
and copy the entry from the resulting PDF into the footnote of my
ConTeXt file. There I can edit (= shorten) and format it.
For the future it be great to have a variant like
“\cite[publfootnote][

“\cite[publfootnote][

An in-tex rendering can be done with \definebtxcitevariant[entry] % this definition is missing in the beta \starttext \citation[entry][something-5] \placebtxrendering \stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
That \citation[entry] method works fine so far. But now two practical problems come up: 1. If I put an article from an “incollection” BibTeX entry into the publications list the full page range of that article inside the collection should be shown, e.g. “S. 250–262” (in German) or something like that. If I quote a passage of said article in my text and reference it on the same page by a footnote I want only the page number(s) to be shown where the exact text passage can be found, let’s say e.g. “S. 253”. So the footnote cannot be exactly the same as the list try. 2. There might be other cases where the footnote reference and the list entry might have to be different: e.g. full given names in the list vs. only initials in the footnote, complete listing of all authors in the list vs. et al. in the footnote etc. etc. Is there (will there be) a way to define maybe an “entry variant” for that purpose which in above given case would e.g. exclude the page range so you could add the page in the footnote manually? Meanwhile I am fine with my workaround, but future papers I will have to write will be much more extensive, which might mean a much larger bibliography :).
