If I comment out the offending line, the file processes as it should. My test file does not duplicate the problem: it just shows another one ( that may or may not be relevant): \definedescription[BibItem][ width=broad, margin=1.5pc, indenting={no}, indentnext=no, alternative=hanging, hang=1, headcommand=\gobbleoneargument, align=right, before={\directsetup{tightspace}\bgroup\language[packed]}, after={\egroup}, ] \definereferenceformat [cite] [type=title,left={},right={}] \definereferenceformat [bibpage] [type=page] %\setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\cite[A],\\ \cite[A and B],\\ \cite[{{A, B, and C}}]\blank} \page \startbibitem[A] A \stopbibitem \startbibitem[A and B] A and B \stopbibitem \startbibitem[{{A, B, and C}}] A, B, and C \stopbibitem \stoptext The file processes but does not show the “A, B, and C” when interaction is activated.

Alan, you had a similar problem a while ago, and I meant to write, but forgot. bibtex disallows some characters in cite keys: "a bibtex key is a sequence of any characters except " # % ' ( ) , = { } plus space." As you can see, you simply should not put a comma into a bibtex key. And I think the best course for ConTeXt would be to adhere to these standards. Thomas
Hi, Thomas— Fair enough. But I am not using bibtex. What I am using—or so I understand—is the manual bibliography, which suits the sort of publication involved here better. Alan On Mon, Mar 13, 2017 at 5:12 PM, Thomas A. Schmitz < thomas.schmitz@uni-bonn.de> wrote:

Alan,
You are using the old MKII bibliograpy mechanism.
A "manual" bibliography list might see attractive "for the sort of
publication involved", but using this, you are on your own.
It would be better to use the new MKIV dataset subsystem. It does not
use bibtex at all and parses the data files in lua.
