Re: [NTG-context] Bibtex change short key
Dear Taco,
I use the excellent BibTex module with this setup: \setupbibtex[database=biblio,sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=apa,refcommand=short,sorttype=bbl,criterium=cited] So if I have something like this @ARTICLE{Akimoto2005, author = {R. Akimoto and B. S. Li and K. Akita and T. Hasama}, ... } in my *.bib file, the \cite[Akimoto2005] results in [ALAH05]. Is there a way to get only the first author with three letters and the year ([Aki05]) in the citation?
Patch the generated .bbl file by hand. after its initial creation, it will not be modified by context itself anymore. May be I should have tried it first, before editting about 200 entries as you suggested. As far as I can judge from the timestamp, at my system the bbl file is generatet every time I run texexec. Have I missed something?
Thanks Hubertus

Oh boy, I am sorry! My fault! The *correct* recipe is: run once, so the bbl exists, then delete the \setupbibtex line from your source, then edit the bbl, then recompile. Feeling stupid, Taco

Dear Taco, thought maybe someone else might need it as well. It works for me but it was just a quick shot. There was not much time to think about all possibilities, and may be the regular expressions need to be modified. I first need to get this thesis finished. So no guarantee. All the best Hubertus

Dear Taco, thought maybe someone else might need it as well. It's better if it's in luatex .
