European Bibliography Styles and MlBTEX
نویسنده
چکیده
We explain why MlBTEX has evolved and why the last version (1.3) provides a new language— close to XSLT—for bibliography styles. We also show that this evolution has been influenced by an investigation regarding bibliography styles used throughout European countries. K: bibliographies, multilingual features, European bibliography styles, BTEX, MlBTEX, bst, nbst, XML, XSLT.

Bibliography Styles Easier with MlBibTEX
We emphasise and discuss some methodology about writing bibliography styles using the nbst language, part of MlBibTEX. Most of the given tricks can also be applied to developing styles using xslt, since nbst extends it closely. Last we show that the organisation of a bibliography style in several files allows modular decomposition.
متن کاملLanguages for bibliography styles
BibTEX is the most commonly used bibliography processor in conjunction with LATEX. To put bibliography styles into action, it uses a stack-based language written with postfixed notation. Recently, other approaches have been proposed: some use a script programming language for designing bibliography styles, e.g., Perl in Bibulus; some are based on converters to XML texts and use XSLT for bibliog...
متن کاملAdvanced Techniques in xslt∗
This talk focus on some advanced techniques used within xslt, such as sort procedures, keys, interface with identifier management, and priority rules among templates matching an xml node. We recall how these features work and propose some examples, some being related to bibliography styles. A short comparison between xslt and nbst, the language used within MlBibTEX for bibliography styles, is g...
متن کاملThe Multibibliography Package∗
Conventional standards for bibliography styles entail a forced choice between index and name/year citations and corresponding references. We reject this false dichotomy, and describe a multibibliography, comprising alphabetic, sequenced, and even chronological orderings of references. An extended inline citation format is also proposed to integrate such heterogeneous styles, and is usable and u...
متن کاملNames in BibTEX and MlBibTEX
Within the bibliographical entries managed by BibTEX, the bibliography processor usually associated with LATEX, person and organisation names are specified with a rough syntax, whose details are not very well known. Likewise, the features related to formatting names within bibliography styles are often viewed as obscure. We explain these points in detail, giving some cases difficult or impossib...
