Hi, I think you like also a article from the Maps about thebibliography in ConTeXt I found some time ago. http://maps.aanhet.net/maps/pdf/27_14.pdf Wolfgang 2007/8/29, Aditya Mahajan :

Hi,

I have done a little with Context but I am still a beginner. As I can read in the archive of this list, there is no possibility to divide the bibliography into sections by the generated bibliography. If this assumption is true, I would like to enter the bibitems into the normal .tex-file. I was also reading the doc of the context-bib-module but I couldn't find any context-replacement for \bibitem.

Headings inside the bibliography are very important for my text and the advantages of bibitem would simplify my data-entering, so I would be happy for any hint/help how to realize this in Context.

I don't want to go back to Latex but to declare my problem better: In Latex a simplified example looks like:

\begin{document}

\section{hamha} asdfklsj fk\cite{key-1}

\section{dumdidim} asdfsaff alfs hfdsj\cite{key-2}

\begin{thebibliography}{1} \subsection*{hamha} \bibitem{key-1}erstes \subsection*{dumdidim} \bibitem{key-2}zweites \end{thebibliography}

\end{document}

If you do not mind a little more markup.

\definereferenceformat[cite][left={[},right={]}]

\defineitemgroup [bibliography]

\setupitemgroup [bibliography] [levels=1,itemalign=flushright,left={[},right={]},stopper=,intro=yes]

\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,fit,broad]

\starttext

\section{hamha} asdfklsj fk~\cite[key-1]

\section{dumdidim} asdfsaff alfs hfdsj~\cite[key-2]

\subject{Bibliography}

\subsubject{hamha}

\startbibliography \item[key-1] erstes \stopbibliography

\subsubject{dumdidim} \startbibliography[continue] \item[key-2] zweites \stopbibliography

\stoptext

Actually, this will aslo work:

\subject{Bibliography}

\subsubject{hamha}

\startbibliography \item[key-1] erstes \subsubject{dumdidim} \startbibliography[continue] \item[key-2] zweites \stopbibliography

Only the first subsubject needs to be outside the bibliography environment.

Hi Peter, 2007/8/30, Peter Schorsch :

Hi,

first thanks for your help. I got it working at the basic-level. I put it into a module for the case that other beginner looking for the bibitem-replacement. But two questions are left before I think, that the module could be uploaded to the wiki:

- how to make the 12*broad flexible? \currentmoduleparamter{itemspace}*broad is not working :-( - how to make that the \item are right-aligned? itemalign=right is also not working

Here is the module-code followed by an appliance-example: -------the module:

\startmodule[biblist]

\unprotect

%\setupmodule[itemspace=12]

\defineitemgroup[bibliography] \setupitemgroup[bibliography][levels=1,left={[},right={]},stopper=] \setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,12*broad] %\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n \currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]

Replace this line with \expanded{\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]} to force expansion of \currentmoduleparameter. You can also use \setupbibliography as a abbreviation for \setupitemgroup[bibliography] Wolfgang

\def\bibitem[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2} {\item[#1]} {\sym{\cap{#2}}\textreference[#1]{\cap{#2}}}}

\def\bibref[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2} {[\in[#1]]} {[\in[#1], #2]}}

\protect \stopmodule \endinput

-------how to use:

\usemodule[biblist]

\starttext

\section{hamha} asdfklsj fk~\bibref[keykeykey]{}

\section{dumdidim} asdfsaff alfs hfdsj~\bibref[aha]{Abs. 4.1/1}

\subject{Bibliography}

\subsubject{hamha} \startbibliography \bibitem[keykeykey]{Der Schlüssel} erstes \stopbibliography

\subsubject{dumdidim} \startbibliography[continue] \bibitem[aha]{} zweites \stopbibliography

\stoptext

Hi Peter, 2007/8/30, Peter Schorsch :

Hi Wolfgang,

...

Replace this line with

\expanded{\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n, \currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]}

Unluckily that is not working :-( I also tried:

\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n \expanded{\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}}*broad]

and

\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n \expandafter\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]

In all three tries I didn't got any error-break but the pdf showed directly that the lines were not accepted.

I attached my local version from yesterday plus my test documents and they work for me.

I posted the right-this-state module into the wiki: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Simple_Bibliography

The mulilingual-interface I will try later.. but right now I am stocked with this and the other listed points :-(

I would be more than happy for any further hint :-)

You should better you english names for your macros and not german ones or write to different versions. Wolfgang

Thanks Wolfgang,

you were totally right. I made a typewriting error - I discovered it with help of your examples.

I also updated the module in the wiki - and I will make it multilingual as soon I will find a good doc about multilingual-commands.

Aren't you doing exactly what the bib module does? The only difference is that the bib module uses registers, so that you can also sort the publication list. And you can format different types of references differently. But the basic idea is the same. Aditya
