Hi Taco,

I'd like to typeset my references in a sort of "authortitle" citation style in the main text (actually hidden away in footnotes, so the final length of the phrase is not an issue):

T. Hoekwater, ConTeXt Publication Module

How could this be done? After a quick glance at the module's source I figured this might take me weeks if not months to work it out myself :-(

That took a bit of doing because the macro that is supposed to help setting this stuff up is broken :-( Here is a macro that comes close to what you had in mind, I hope. The main weakness is that it only supports one main author, as it is now (that is because of "\getcitedata[author1]") \def\MYauthor#1#2#3#4#5{#4 #3} \def\specialcite#1[#2]% {\bgroup \getcitedata[author1][#2] to \mauthors \getcitedata[title][#2] to \mtitle \expandafter\MYauthor\mauthors, \mtitle \egroup} Best wishes, Taco
