It also does 1990a and 1990b if Ager and Dewey wrote two +papers that year. +As I am not a great expert of bibliography styles, I ask you if there is +any style which satisfies the requirements of IJRB above or what should I +do to change named.bst in that direction. + +thanks in advance, + +Massimo +- ----------------------------------------------------- +Chi addimanna nun fa errore + +Quando sei indeciso, meglio chiedere + +If you are not sure, you'd better ask +- ----------------------------------------------------- + +------------------------------ + +End of TeXhax Digest V1999 #1 +***************************** + +About TeXhax... + +Please send contributions to: TeXhax@tex.ac.uk + +Subscription and unsubscription requests: + send a one line mail message to TeXhax-Request@tex.ac.uk + containing only the line + subscribe texhax + or + unsubscribe texhax +If you have problems with un/subscribing, +please mail texhax-owner@nottingham.ac.uk + +For information on the TeX Users Group, please send a message to +office@tug.org, or write TeX Users Group, 1466 NW Front Avenue, +Suite 3141, Portland, OR 97209-2820 USA (phone: 1 503 223 9994, +fax: 1 503 223 3960). + +Backnumbers of all the digests are stored in the Comprehensive TeX +Archive Network (CTAN) and can be retrieved on the Internet by +anonymous ftp.
