-\texttt{usecompiler} option to \texttt{false} doesn't remove
-\textsf{namec} from the sorting list, whereas the other standard

-\emph{Manual}'s specifications, I have fairly thoroughly redefined
-\textsf{biblatex}'s facilities for treating translations. The
-\textsf{origtitle} field isn't used, while the \textsf{language} and
-\textsf{origdate} fields have been press-ganged for other duties. The
-\textsf{origlanguage} field, for its part, retains a dual role in
-presenting translations in a bibliography. The details of the
-\emph{Manual}'s suggested treatment when both a translation and an
-original are cited may be found below under \textbf{userf}. Here,
-however, I simply note that the introductory string used to connect
-the translation's citation with the original's is \enquote{Originally
- published as,} which I suggest may well be inaccurate in a great
-many cases, as for instance when citing a work from classical
-antiquity, which will most certainly not \enquote{originally} have
-been published in the Loeb Classical Library. Although not, strictly
-speaking, authorized by the \emph{Manual}, I have provided another way
-to introduce the original text, using the \textsf{origlanguage} field,
-which must be provided \emph{in the entry for the translation, not the
- original text} (aristotle:metaphy:trans). If you put one of the
-standard \textsf{biblatex} bibstrings there (enumerated below), then
-the entry will work properly across multiple languages. Otherwise,
-just put the name of the language there, localized as necessary, and
-\textsf{biblatex-chicago} will eschew \enquote{Originally published
- as} in favor of, e.g., \enquote{Greek edition:} or \enquote{French
- edition:}. This has no effect in notes, where only the work cited
---- original or translation --- will be printed, but it may help to
-make the \emph{Manual}'s suggestions for the bibliography more
-palatable.
-
-\mylittlespace That was the first usage, in keeping at least with the
-spirit of the \emph{Manual}. I have also, perhaps less in keeping
-with that specification, retained some of \textsf{biblatex}'s
-functionality for this field. If an entry doesn't have a
-\textsf{userf} field, and therefore won't be combining a text and its
-translation in the bibliography, you can also use
-\textsf{origlanguage} as Lehman intended it, so that instead of
-saying, e.g., \enquote{translated by X,} the entry will read
-\enquote{translated from the German by X.} The \emph{Manual} doesn't
-mention this, but it may conceivably help avoid certain ambiguities in
-some citations. As in \textsf{biblatex}, if you wish to use this
-functionality, you have to provide \emph{not} the name of the
-language, but rather a bibliography string, which may, at the time of
-writing, be one of \texttt{american}, \texttt{brazilian},
-\texttt{danish}, \texttt{dutch}, \texttt{english}, \texttt{french},
-\texttt{german}, \texttt{greek}, \texttt{italian}, \texttt{latin},

+Before this mechanism was available \textsf{biblatex-chicago}
+attempted to provide a similar but much more limited set of
+inter-entry relationships using the \textsf{biblatex} fields
+\textsf{origlanguage}, \textsf{origlocation}, \textsf{origpublisher},
+\textsf{pubstate}, \textsf{reprinttitle}, and \textsf{userf}. All of
+these still work just as they always have or, I hope, somewhat better
+than they always have after many recent bug fixes, but the more
+general and more powerful \textsf{biblatex} \mycolor{\texttt{related}}
+mechanism is also available. It can provide much of what the older
+system provided and a great deal that it couldn't. What follows is a
+field-by-field discussion of the options now available.
+
+\mybigspace In \mymarginpar{\textbf{origlanguage}} keeping with the
+\emph{Manual}'s specifications, I have fairly thoroughly redefined
+\textsf{biblatex}'s facilities for treating translations. The
+\textsf{origtitle} field isn't used, while the \textsf{language} and
+\textsf{origdate} fields have been press-ganged for other duties. The
+\textsf{origlanguage} field, for its part, retains a dual role in
+presenting translations in a bibliography. The details of the
+\emph{Manual}'s suggested treatment when both a translation and an
+original are cited may be found below under \textbf{userf}. Here,
+however, I simply note that the introductory string used to connect
+the translation's citation with the original's is \enquote{Originally
+ published as,} which I suggest may well be inaccurate in a great
+many cases, as for instance when citing a work from classical
+antiquity, which will most certainly not \enquote{originally} have
+been published in the Loeb Classical Library. Although not, strictly
+speaking, authorized by the \emph{Manual}, I have provided another way
+to introduce the original text, using the \textsf{origlanguage} field,
+which must be provided \emph{in the entry for the translation, not the
+ original text} (aristotle:metaphy:trans). If you put one of the
+standard \textsf{biblatex} bibstrings there (enumerated below), then
+the entry will work properly across multiple languages. Otherwise,
+just put the name of the language there, localized as necessary, and
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} will eschew \enquote{Originally published
+ as} in favor of, e.g., \enquote{Greek edition:} or \enquote{French
+ edition:}. This has no effect in notes, where only the work cited
+--- original or translation --- will be printed, but it may help to
+make the \emph{Manual}'s suggestions for the bibliography more
+palatable. \textbf{NB:} You can use the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}
+ \texttt{origpubas}} with a customized
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field to achieve the same ends.
+
+\mylittlespace That was the first usage, in keeping at least with the
+spirit of the \emph{Manual}. I have also, perhaps less in keeping
+with that specification, retained some of \textsf{biblatex}'s
+functionality for this field. If an entry doesn't have a
+\textsf{userf} field, and therefore won't be combining a text and its
+translation in the bibliography, you can also use
+\textsf{origlanguage} as the standard styles use it, so that instead
+of saying, e.g., \enquote{translated by X,} the entry will read
+\enquote{translated from the German by X.} The \emph{Manual} doesn't
+mention this, but it may conceivably help avoid certain ambiguities in
+some citations. As in \textsf{biblatex}, if you wish to use this
+functionality, you have to provide \emph{not} the name of the
+language, but rather a bibliography string, which may, at the time of
+writing, be one of \texttt{american}, \texttt{brazilian},
+\texttt{danish}, \texttt{dutch}, \texttt{english}, \texttt{french},
+\texttt{german}, \texttt{greek}, \texttt{italian}, \texttt{latin},
+\texttt{norwegian}, \texttt{portuguese}, \texttt{spanish}, or
+\texttt{swedish}, to which I've added \texttt{russian}.
+
+\mybigspace The \mymarginpar{\textbf{origlocation}} 16th edition of
+the \emph{Manual} has somewhat clarified issues pertaining to the
+documentation of reprint editions and their corresponding originals
+(14.166). In \textsf{biblatex-chicago} you can provide both an
+\textsf{origlocation} and an \textsf{origpublisher} to go along with
+the \textsf{origdate}, should you so wish, and all of this information
+will be printed in long notes and bibliography. You can also use this
+field in a \textsf{letter} or \textsf{misc} (with
+\textsf{entrysubtype}) entry to give the place where a published or
+unpublished letter was written (14.117). (Jonathan Robinson has
+suggested that the \textsf{origlocation} may in some circumstances
+actually be necessary for disambiguation, his example being early
+printed editions of the same material printed in the same year but in
+different cities. The new functionality should make this simple to
+achieve. Cf.\ \textsf{origdate} (section~\ref{sec:entryfields}),
+\textsf{origpublisher} and \textsf{pubstate}; schweitzer:bach.)
+\textbf{NB:} It is impossible to present this same information, as
+here, \emph{inside} a single entry using a \mycolor{\texttt{related}}
+field, though the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype} \texttt{origpubin}}
+presents much the same information \emph{after} the entry, using data
+extracted from a separate entry.
+
+\mybigspace As \mymarginpar{\textbf{origpublisher}} with the
+\textsf{origlocation} field just above, the 16th edition of the
+\emph{Manual} has clarified issues pertaining to reprint editions and
+their corresponding originals (14.166). You can provide an
+\textsf{origpublisher} and/or an \textsf{origlocation} in addition to
+the \textsf{origdate}, and all will be presented in long notes and
+bibliography. (Cf.\ \textsf{origdate}
+(section~\ref{sec:entryfields}), \textsf{origlocation}, and
+\textsf{pubstate}; schweitzer:bach.) \textbf{NB:} It is impossible to
+present this same information, as here, \emph{inside} a single entry
+using a \mycolor{\texttt{related}} field, though the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype} \texttt{origpubin}} presents much the
+same information \emph{after} the entry, using data extracted from a
+separate entry.
+
+\mybigspace Due \mymarginpar{\textbf{pubstate}} to specific
+requirements in the author-date style, I have implemented this field
+there as a way of providing accurate citations of reprinted books. As
+the functionality seemed useful, I have also included some of it in
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago-notes}. In previous releases you could
+identify a reprint by placing \cmd{bibstring\{reprint\}} in the
+\textsf{location} field, followed by a comma, and the style would
+print the appropriate string in notes and bibliography. Now, if it is
+more convenient, easier to remember, or if you want to reuse your .bib
+database for the author-date style, you can simply put the string
+\texttt{reprint} into the \textsf{pubstate} field, and the package
+will take care of everything for you. Both of these methods will now
+work just fine, but please choose only one per entry, otherwise the
+string will be printed twice.
+
+\mylittlespace There are a couple of exceptions to this basic
+functionality. In \textsf{video} entries, no bibstring will be
+printed, as it's not appropriate there, so in effect the
+\textsf{pubstate} field will be ignored. In \textsf{music} entries,
+the mechanism transforms the \textsf{origdate} from a recording date
+for an album into the original release date for that album. Whereas a
+recording date will be printed in the middle of the note or
+bibliography entry, the original release date will be printed near the
+end, preceded by the appropriate string. (Cf.\ 14.276; floyd:atom.)
+Please remember that, currently, if you put anything besides
+\texttt{reprint} in the \textsf{pubstate} field it will silently be
+ignored, but this may change in future releases. \textbf{NB:} The
+\textsf{pubstate} functionality currently has no equivalent using the
+\mycolor{\textsf{related}} field.
+
+\mybigspace This \colmarginpar{\textbf{related}} field is required to
+use \textsf{biblatex's} \mycolor{\textsf{related}} functionality, and
+it should contain the entry key or keys from which \textsf{biblatex}
+should extract data for presentation not on its own, but rather in the
+bibliography entry (or long note) which contains the \textsf{related}
+field itself. Indeed, unless you change the defaults using the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedoptions}} field this data will only appear in
+such entries, never on its own. Without a
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}} field, this will print the default
+type, equivalent to a long note citation \emph{immediately after} the
+bibliography entry containing the \textsf{related} field, with no
+intervening string. You can specify a string using the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field, so in effect this presents a
+powerful mechanism for presenting full references to related material
+of any sort whatsoever.
+
+\mylittlespace By \colmarginpar{\texttt{related=bib}} default, the
+package option \mycolor{\texttt{related}} is set to print
+\textsf{related} entries only in the bibliography. If you would like
+them to appear only in long notes, in both notes and bibliography, or
+indeed in neither, you can set this option, either in your preamble or
+in the \textsf{options} field of the relevant entry, to
+\texttt{notes}, \texttt{true}, or \texttt{false}, respectively. (See
+coolidge:speech and weed:flatiron.)
+
+\mybigspace This \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedoptions}} field will, I
+should expect, only be needed very rarely. If you want to set
+entry-level options for a \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entry this is
+where you can do it, though please remember one important detail. By
+default, \textsf{Biber} sets this option to \texttt{dataonly}, which
+among other things prevents the \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entry from
+appearing separately in the bibliography. If you use the field
+yourself, then you'll need to include \texttt{dataonly} as one of the
+options therein to maintain this effect. Of course, it may be you
+don't want all the effects of \texttt{dataonly}, so you can tailor it
+however you wish. See \textsf{biblatex.pdf} §~3.4.
+
+\mybigspace The \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedstring}} procedure for
+choosing a string to connect the main entry with its related entry/ies
+is straightforward, the default being a \texttt{bibstring}, if any,
+with the same name as the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}}, or
+alternately a string or strings defined within the driver for that
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}}, as happens with the types
+\mycolor{\texttt{origpubin}} and \mycolor{\texttt{bytranslator}}.
+Failing these, you can supply your own in the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field, either in the form of the name
+of a pre-defined \texttt{bibstring} or as any text you choose, and
+anything in this field always takes precedence over the automatic
+choices. If your non-\texttt{bibstring} starts with a lowercase
+letter then \textsf{biblatex-chicago} will capitalize it automatically
+for you depending on context (weed:flatiron). I have not altered the
+standard \textsf{relatedtype} strings, and have indeed changed the
+\textsf{reprinttitle} mechanism to use the
+\mycolor{\texttt{reprintfrom}} string, which works better
+syntactically in this context.
+
+\mybigspace The \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedtype}} standard
+\textsf{biblatex} styles define six \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtypes}},
+and I have either simply adopted them wholesale or adapted them to the
+needs of the Chicago style, retaining the basic syntax as much as
+possible:
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{bytranslator:}] This prints a full citation of a
+ translation, starting with the (localized) string
+ \enquote{Translated by \textsf{translator} as \textsf{Title},
+ \ldots} The reference is fuller in \textsf{biblatex-chicago} than
+ in the standard styles, and for the first time allows users to
+ choose the \emph{Manual's} alternate method for presenting original
+ + translation (14.109; furet:related). The old \textsf{userf}
+ mechanism provides the other, as does the
+ \mycolor{\texttt{origpubas} \textsf{relatedtype}} (see below).
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{default:}] This is the macro used when no
+ \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}} is defined. It prints, as in the
+ standard styles, and with no intervening string, a full citation of
+ the \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entries. In
+ \textsf{biblatex-chicago-notes}, the citation is in long note form,
+ rather than bibliography form, as this is the usual practice in the
+ \emph{Manual}.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{multivolume:}] This briefly lists the individual
+ volumes in a multi-volume work, and works much as in the standard
+ styles. The \emph{Manual}, as far as I can see, has little to say
+ on the matter.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{origpubas:}] This type can, if you want, replace
+ the old \textsf{userf} mechanism, described below, for presenting an
+ original with its translation. It's quite similar to the
+ \mycolor{\texttt{default}} type, but with a \texttt{bibstring}
+ automatically connecting the entry with its \textsf{related}
+ entries. You can identify other sorts of relationships if you
+ change the introductory string using \textsf{relatedstring}.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{origpubin:}] I haven't altered this from the
+ \textsf{biblatex} default at all, and it presents reprint
+ information \emph{after} the main entry rather than within it. The
+ \emph{Manual} seems to prefer the latter for the notes \&
+ bibliography style and, in some circumstances, the former for
+ author-date.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{reprintfrom:}] This type provides a replacement

+ (In \textsf{biblatex-chicago} it contains some kludges to cope with

+\textbf{If you have been using this feature, you may want to have a

+\textbf{documented above, for a better solution to this problem, one
+ that also allows you to change the introductory string using the}
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} \textbf{field. The}
+\textsf{reprinttitle} \textbf{field will continue to work as before,
+ however.} At the request of Will Small, I have included a means of
+providing the original publication details of an essay or a chapter
+that you are citing from a subsequent reprint, e.g., a \emph{Collected
+ Essays} volume. In such a case, at least according to the
+\emph{Manual} (14.115), such details needn't be provided in notes,
+only in the bibliography, and then only if these details are
+\enquote{of particular interest.} The data would follow an
+introductory phrase like \enquote{originally published as,} making the
+problem strictly parallel to that of including details of a work in
+the original language alongside the details of its translation. I
+have addressed the latter problem with the \textsf{userf} field, which
+provides a sort of cross-referencing method for this purpose, and
+\textsf{reprinttitle} works in \emph{exactly} the same way. In the
+.bib entry for the reprint you include a cross-reference to the cite
+key of the original location using the \textsf{reprinttitle} field
+(which it may help mnemonically to think of as a \enquote{reprinted
+ title} field). The main difference between the two forms is that
+\textsf{userf} prints all but the \textsf{author} of the original
+work, whereas \textsf{reprinttitle} suppresses both the
+\textsf{author} and the \textsf{title} of the original, giving only
+the more general details, beginning with, e.g., the
+\textsf{journaltitle} or \textsf{booktitle} and continuing from there.
+The string prefacing this information will be \enquote{Reprinted
+ from.} Please see the documentation on \textsf{userf} below for all
+the details on how to create .bib entries for presenting your data.
+
+\mybigspace This \mymarginpar{\textbf{userf}} is one of the
+supplemental fields which \textsf{biblatex} provides, and is used by
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} for a very specific purpose. When you cite
+both a translation and its original, the \emph{Manual} (14.109)
+recommends that, in the bibliography at least, you combine references
+to both texts in one entry, though the presentation in notes is pretty
+much up to you. In order to follow this specification, I have
+provided a third cross-referencing system (the others being
+\textsf{crossref} and \textsf{xref}), and have chosen the name
+\textsf{userf} because it might act as a mnemonic for its function.
+
+\mylittlespace In order to use this system, you should start by
+entering both the original and its translation into your .bib file,
+just as you normally would. The mechanism works for any entry type,
+and the two entries need not be of the same type. In the entry for
+the \emph{translation}, you put the cite key of the original into the
+\textsf{userf} field. In the \emph{original's} entry, you need to
+include something that will prevent the entry from being printed
+separately in the bibliography --- \texttt{skipbib} in the
+\textsf{options} field will work, as would something in the
+\textsf{keywords} field in conjunction with a \texttt{notkeyword=}
+switch in the \cmd{printbibliography} command. In this standard case,
+the data for the translation will be printed first, followed by the
+string \texttt{originally published as}, followed by the original,
+author omitted, in what amounts to the same format that the
+\emph{Manual} uses for long footnotes (furet:passing:eng,
+furet:passing:fr). As explained above (\textbf{origlanguage}), I have
+also included a way to modify the string printed before the original.
+In the entry for the \emph{translation}, you put the original's
+language in \textsf{origlanguage}, and instead of \texttt{originally
+ published as}, you'll get \texttt{French edition:} or \texttt{Latin
+ edition:}, etc.\ (aristotle:metaphy:gr, aristotle:metaphy:trans).
+\textbf{NB:} You can use the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}
+ \texttt{origpubas}} to replicate the \textsf{userf} functionality,
+and you can also customize the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field
+to achieve the same result as with \textsf{origlanguage}.

-2.0, \textsf{Biber} will become a requirement, so I recommend getting
-to know it sooner rather than later.
-
-\mylittlespace The
-\mymarginpar{\cmd{Declare-}\\\texttt{SortingScheme}} second
-\textsf{Biber} enhancement I have implemented allows you to include
-almost any field whatsoever in \textsf{biblatex's} sorting algorithms
-for the bibliography, so that a great many more entries will be sorted
-correctly automatically rather than requiring manual intervention in
-the form of a \textsf{sortkey} field or the like. Code in
-\textsf{biblatex-chicago.sty} detects whether you are using
-\textsf{Biber}, and if and only if this is the case changes the
-sorting scheme to a custom one (\texttt{cms}), a Chicago-specific
-variant of the default \texttt{nty}. (You can find its definition in
-\textsf{chicago-notes.cbx}.) Users of all other backends will still
-be using \texttt{nty}.
-
-%%\enlargethispage{\baselineskip}
-
-\mylittlespace The advantages of this scheme are, specifically, that
-any entry headed by one of the supplemental name fields
-(\textsf{name[a-c]}), a \textsf{manual} entry headed by an
+\cmd{footnote} command.) If \colmarginpar{New} you use a command like
+\cmd{printbiblist\{shortjournal\}} to print a list of journal
+abbreviations, you can use the \mycolor{\texttt{sjnotes}} and
+\mycolor{\texttt{sjendnotes}} \texttt{bibenvironments} in exactly the
+same way. Please see the documentation of \textsf{shorthand} and
+\mycolor{\textsf{shortjournal}} in section~\ref{sec:entryfields} above
+for further options available to you for presenting and formatting
+these two types of \texttt{biblist}.
+
+\mylittlespace Formerly
+\mymarginpar{\cmd{Declare-}\\\texttt{Labelname}} available only to
+those using \textsf{Biber}, but since version 3.0 handled by
+\textsf{biblatex} itself, \cmd{DeclareLabelname} allows you to add
+name fields for consideration when \textsf{biblatex} is attempting to
+find a shortened name for short notes. This, for example, allows a
+compiler (=\textsf{namec}) to appear at the head of short notes
+without any other intervention from the user, rather than requiring a
+\textsf{shortauthor} field as previous releases of
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} did. The default search order for the
+Chicago styles is \textsf{shortauthor}, \textsf{author},
+\textsf{shorteditor}, \textsf{namea}, \textsf{editor}, \textsf{nameb},
+\textsf{translator}, \textsf{namec}. You can set the option
+\texttt{use<name>=false} in entries or when loading
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} to exclude individual fields from appearing
+in short notes, or indeed at the head of long notes and bibliography
+entries. See the documentation of those name types in
+section~\ref{sec:entryfields} for further details.
+
+\mylittlespace I \mymarginpar{\cmd{Declare-}\\\texttt{SortingScheme}}
+have provided, using this declaration, a custom sorting algorithm for
+the bibliography. The idea is that \textsf{biblatex} can use any
+field whatsoever for sorting, so that a great many more entries will
+be sorted correctly automatically rather than requiring manual
+intervention in the form of a \textsf{sortkey} field or the like.
+Code in \textsf{biblatex-chicago.sty} loads the custom scheme
+\enquote{\texttt{cms},} a Chicago-specific variant of the default
+\texttt{nty}. (You can find its definition in
+\textsf{chicago-notes.cbx}.) The advantages of this scheme are,
+specifically, that any entry headed by one of the supplemental name
+fields (\textsf{name[a-c]}), a \textsf{manual} entry headed by an
\textsf{organization}, or an \textsf{article} or \textsf{review} entry
-headed by a \textsf{journaltitle} will no longer need a
-\textsf{sortkey} set. The main disadvantage should only occur very
-rarely, and appears because the supplemental name fields are treated
-differently from the standard name fields by \textsf{biblatex}.
-Ordinarily, you can set, for example, \texttt{useauthor=false} in the
-\textsf{options} field to remove the \textsf{author's} name from
-consideration for sorting purposes. The Chicago-specific option
-\textsf{usecompiler=false}, however, doesn't remove \textsf{namec}
-from such consideration, so in an entry like chaucer:alt you \emph{do}
-need a \textsf{sortkey} or else it will be alphabetized by
-\textsf{namec} rather than by \textsf{title}.
+headed by a \textsf{journaltitle} won't need a \textsf{sortkey} set.
+Further, the \texttt{use<name>=false} options will remove any name

-\textsf{namec}, even though you have \texttt{usecompiler=false} in

-appear at the head of the entry. If you want to skip over parts of
-the chain, you must turn off \emph{all} of the parts up to the one you

+requested by user BenVB, you can now utilize this functionality in

+First, users in some fields may well already be accustomed to using a

+\textsf{journaltitle} field may well already contain the abbreviation,
+which will appear wherever that field is printed. In such cases, it

+have to move the abbreviation from the \textsf{journaltitle} to the
+\mycolor{\textsf{shortjournal}} field, placing the full title in the
+former. In \textsf{periodical} entries the \textsf{title} field
+presents what would be the \textsf{journaltitle} in the
+\textsf{articles} or \textsf{reviews}, so in such entries you can
+provide the standard \textsf{shorttitle} field to accompany the
+\textsf{title}, and \textsf{biblatex-chicago} will automatically copy
+the \textsf{shorttitle} into a \mycolor{\textsf{shortjournal}}.
+
+\mylittlespace Having done this, you then need to choose where to
+print the \mycolor{\textsf{shortjournal}}, which is controlled by the
+\mycolor{\texttt{journalabbrev}} option either in the preamble or in
+the \textsf{options} field of individual .bib entries. By default,
+and taking account of the space-saving features of the author-date
+styles, this option is set to \texttt{notes}, so your
+\textsf{shortjournal} fields will be printed only in those citations
+where they appear in place of an \textsf{author}. There are three
+other settings: \texttt{true} prints the shortened fields both in
+citations and in the reference list, \texttt{bib} prints them only in
+the reference list, and \texttt{false} ignores them. Should you wish
+to present a list of these abbreviations with their expansions, then
+you need to use the \cmd{printbiblist\{shortjournal\}} command,
+perhaps with a \texttt{title} option to differentiate the list from

+than they always have after many recent bug fixes, but the more
+general and more powerful \textsf{biblatex} \mycolor{\texttt{related}}
+mechanism is also available. It can provide much of what the older
+system provided and a great deal that it couldn't. What follows is a
+field-by-field discussion of the options now available.
+
+\mybigspace In \mymarginpar{\textbf{origlanguage}} keeping with the
+\emph{Manual}'s specifications, I have fairly thoroughly redefined
+\textsf{biblatex}'s facilities for treating translations. The
+\textsf{origtitle} field isn't used, while the \textsf{language} and
+\textsf{origdate} fields have been press-ganged for other duties. The
+\textsf{origlanguage} field, for its part, retains a dual role in
+presenting translations in a list of references. The details of the
+\emph{Manual}'s suggested treatment when both a translation and an
+original are cited may be found below under \textbf{userf}. Here,
+however, I simply note that the introductory string used to connect
+the translation's citation with the original's is \enquote{Originally
+ published as,} which I suggest may well be inaccurate in a great
+many cases, as for instance when citing a work from classical
+antiquity, which will most certainly not \enquote{originally} have
+been published in the Loeb Classical Library. Although not, strictly
+speaking, authorized by the \emph{Manual}, I have provided another way
+to introduce the original text, using the \textsf{origlanguage} field,
+which must be provided \emph{in the entry for the translation, not the
+ original text} (aristotle:metaphy:trans). If you put one of the
+standard \textsf{biblatex} bibstrings there (enumerated below), then
+the entry will work properly across multiple languages. Otherwise,
+just put the name of the language there, localized as necessary, and
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} will eschew \enquote{Originally published
+ as} in favor of, e.g., \enquote{Greek edition:} or \enquote{French
+ edition:}. This has no effect in citations, where only the work
+cited --- original or translation --- will be printed, but it may help
+to make the \emph{Manual}'s suggestions for the list of references
+more palatable. \textbf{NB:} You can use the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype} \texttt{origpubas}} with a customized
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field to achieve the same ends.
+
+\mylittlespace That was the first usage, in keeping at least with the
+spirit of the \emph{Manual}. I have also, perhaps less in keeping
+with that specification, retained some of \textsf{biblatex}'s
+functionality for this field. If an entry doesn't have a
+\textsf{userf} field, and therefore won't be combining a text and its
+translation in the list of references, you can also use
+\textsf{origlanguage} as \textsf{biblatex} intended it, so that
+instead of saying, e.g., \enquote{translated by X,} the entry will
+read \enquote{translated from the German by X.} The \emph{Manual}
+doesn't mention this, but it may conceivably help avoid certain
+ambiguities in some citations. As in \textsf{biblatex}, if you wish
+to use this functionality, you have to provide \emph{not} the name of
+the language, but rather a bibstring, which may, at the time of
+writing, be one of \texttt{american}, \texttt{brazilian},
+\texttt{danish}, \texttt{dutch}, \texttt{english}, \texttt{french},
+\texttt{german}, \texttt{greek}, \texttt{italian}, \texttt{latin},
+\texttt{norwegian}, \texttt{portuguese}, \texttt{spanish}, or
+\texttt{swedish}, to which I've added \texttt{russian}.
+
+\mybigspace The \mymarginpar{\textbf{origlocation}} 16th edition of
+the \emph{Manual} has somewhat clarified issues pertaining to the
+documentation of reprint editions and their corresponding originals
+(14.166, 15.38). In \textsf{biblatex-chicago} you can provide both an
+\textsf{origlocation} and an \textsf{origpublisher} to go along with
+the \textsf{origdate}, should you so wish, and all of this information
+will be printed in the reference list. You can also use this field in
+a \textsf{letter} or \textsf{misc} (with \textsf{entrysubtype}) entry
+to give the place where a published or unpublished letter was written
+(14.117). (Jonathan Robinson has suggested that the
+\textsf{origlocation} may in some circumstances actually be helpful
+for disambiguation, his example being early printed editions of the
+same material printed in the same year but in different cities. The
+new functionality should make this simple to achieve. Cf.\
+\textsf{origdate} [section~\ref{sec:fields:authdate}],
+\textsf{origpublisher} and \textsf{pubstate}; schweitzer:bach.)
+\textbf{NB:} It is impossible to present this same information, as
+here, \emph{inside} a single entry using a \mycolor{\texttt{related}}

+\mybigspace As \mymarginpar{\textbf{origpublisher}} with the
+\textsf{origlocation} field just above, the 16th edition of the
+\emph{Manual} has clarified issues pertaining to reprint editions and
+their corresponding originals (14.166, 15.38). You can provide an
+\textsf{origpublisher} and/or an \textsf{origlocation} in addition to
+the \textsf{origdate}, and all will be presented in long notes and
+bibliography. (Cf.\ \textsf{origdate}
+[section~\ref{sec:fields:authdate}], \textsf{origlocation}, and
+\textsf{pubstate}; schweitzer:bach.) \textbf{NB:} It is impossible to

+\mybigspace A \mymarginpar{\textbf{pubstate}} standard
+\textsf{biblatex} field. Because the author-date specification has
+fairly complicated rules about presenting reprinted editions (15.38),
+I have adopted this field as a means of simplifying the problem for
+users. Instead of manually formatting the \textsf{location} field,
+you can simply put the string \texttt{reprint} into the
+\textsf{pubstate} field, and depending on which date(s) you have
+chosen to appear at the head of the entry,
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago-authordate} will either print the (localized)
+string \texttt{reprint} in the proper place or otherwise provide a
+notice at the end of the entry detailing the original publication
+date. See under \textbf{date} above for the available permutations.
+(Cf.\ aristotle:metaphy:gr, maitland:canon, maitland:equity,
+schweitzer:bach.) If the field contains something other than the word
+\texttt{reprint}, then it will be treated as in the standard styles,
+and printed after the publication information.
+
+\mylittlespace There is one subtlety of which you ought to be aware.
+In \textsf{music} entries, the \textsf{pubstate} mechanism transforms
+the \textsf{origdate} from a recording date for an album into the
+original release date for that album. If that date appears in
+citations and at the head of reference-list entries, then this
+mechanism won't generally make much difference, but if it appears
+elsewhere then a recording date will be printed in the middle of the
+reference list entry, while the original release date will be printed
+near the end, preceded by the appropriate string. \textbf{NB:} For
+those uses of the \textsf{pubstate} field that print a notice at the
+end of the entry, the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}
+ \texttt{origpubin}} provides much the same information, using data
+extracted from a different entry. If the information appears inside
+the entry then there is no equivalent \mycolor{\textsf{related}}
+functionality.
+
+\mybigspace This \colmarginpar{\textbf{related}} field is required to
+use \textsf{biblatex's} \mycolor{\textsf{related}} functionality, and
+it should contain the entry key or keys from which \textsf{biblatex}
+should extract data for presentation not on its own, but rather in the
+reference list entry which contains the \textsf{related} field itself.
+Indeed, unless you change the defaults using the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedoptions}} field this data will only appear in
+such entries, never on its own and never in citations. Without a
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}} field, this will print the default
+type, equivalent to a full reference list entry \emph{immediately
+ after} the entry containing the \textsf{related} field, with no
+intervening string. You can specify a string using the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field, so in effect this presents a
+powerful mechanism for presenting full references to related material
+of any sort whatsoever.
+
+\mylittlespace By \colmarginpar{\texttt{related=true}} default, the
+package option \mycolor{\texttt{related}} is set to print
+\textsf{related} entries in the list of references. If you would like
+to turn this off you can set this option, either in your preamble or
+in the \textsf{options} or \mycolor{\textsf{relatedoptions}} field of

+\mybigspace This \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedoptions}} field will, I
+should expect, only be needed very rarely. If you want to set
+entry-level options for a \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entry this is
+where you can do it, though please remember one important detail. By
+default, \textsf{Biber} sets this option to \texttt{dataonly}, which
+among other things prevents the \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entry from
+appearing separately in the list of references, assuming you don't
+specifically cite it elsewhere. If you use the field yourself, then
+you'll need to include \texttt{dataonly} as one of the options therein
+to maintain this effect. Of course, it may be you don't want all the
+effects of \texttt{dataonly}, so you can tailor it however you wish.
+See \textsf{biblatex.pdf} §~3.4.
+
+\mybigspace The \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedstring}} procedure for
+choosing a string to connect the main entry with its related entry/ies
+is straightforward, the default being a \texttt{bibstring}, if any,
+with the same name as the \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}}, or
+alternately a string or strings defined within the driver for that
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}}, as happens with the types
+\mycolor{\texttt{origpubin}} and \mycolor{\texttt{bytranslator}}.
+Failing these, you can supply your own in the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field, either in the form of the name
+of a pre-defined \texttt{bibstring} or as any text you choose, and
+anything in this field always takes precedence over the automatic
+choices. If your non-\texttt{bibstring} starts with a lowercase
+letter then \textsf{biblatex-chicago} will capitalize it automatically
+for you depending on context (coolidge:speech, weed:flatiron). I have
+not altered the standard \textsf{relatedtype} strings, and have in
+fact modified the \textsf{reprinttitle} mechanism to use the
+\mycolor{\texttt{reprintfrom}} string, which works better
+syntactically in this context, and modified the \textsf{pubstate}
+mechanism to use the \mycolor{\texttt{origpubin}} string, which brings
+it into line with the notes \&\ bibliography style.
+
+\mybigspace The \colmarginpar{\textbf{relatedtype}} standard
+\textsf{biblatex} styles define six \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtypes}},
+and I have either simply adopted them wholesale or adapted them to the
+needs of the Chicago style, retaining the basic syntax as much as
+possible:
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{bytranslator:}] This prints a full reference to
+ a translation, starting with the (localized) string
+ \enquote{Translated by \textsf{translator} as \textsf{Title},
+ \ldots} The reference is fuller in \textsf{biblatex-chicago} than
+ in the standard styles, and for the first time allows users to
+ choose the \emph{Manual's} alternate method for presenting original
+ + translation (14.109; furet:passing:fr). The old \textsf{userf}
+ mechanism provides the other, as does the
+ \mycolor{\texttt{origpubas} \textsf{relatedtype}} (see below).
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{default:}] This is the macro used when no
+ \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype}} is defined. It prints, as in the
+ standard styles, and with no intervening string, full references to
+ the \mycolor{\textsf{related}} entries.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{multivolume:}] This briefly lists the individual
+ volumes in a multi-volume work, and works much as in the standard
+ styles. The \emph{Manual}, as far as I can see, has little to say
+ on the matter.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{origpubas:}] This type can, if you want, replace
+ the old \textsf{userf} mechanism, described below, for presenting an
+ original with its translation. It's quite similar to the
+ \mycolor{\texttt{default}} type, but with a \texttt{bibstring}
+ automatically connecting the entry with its \textsf{related}
+ entries. You can identify other sorts of relationships if you
+ change the introductory string using \textsf{relatedstring}.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{origpubin:}] I have barely altered this from the
+ \textsf{biblatex} default, and it will present reprint information
+ \emph{after} the main entry rather than within it. The
+ \emph{Manual} seems to prefer the latter for the notes \&
+ bibliography style and, in some circumstances, the former for
+ author-date.
+\item[\qquad \mycolor{reprintfrom:}] This type provides a replacement
+ for the old \textsf{reprinttitle} mechanism described below. As in
+ the standard styles, it presents a fuller reference to the reprinted
+ material than does \mycolor{\texttt{origpubin}}, and is designed
+ particularly for presenting pieces formerly printed in other
+ collections or perhaps essays collected from various periodicals.
+ (In \textsf{biblatex-chicago} it contains some kludges to cope with
+ possible \textsf{babel} language environments, so if you find it
+ behaving oddly please let me know, including whether you are using
+ \textsf{babel} [which I've tested] or \textsf{polyglossia} [which I
+ haven't].)
+\end{description}
+
+\mybigspace \textbf{NB:} \mymarginpar{\textbf{reprinttitle}}
+\textbf{If you have been using this feature, you may want to have a
+ look at the} \mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype} \texttt{reprintfrom}},
+\textbf{documented above, for a better solution to this problem, one
+ that also allows you to change the introductory string using the}
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} \textbf{field. The}
+\textsf{reprinttitle} \textbf{field will continue to work as before,
+ however.} At the request of Will Small, I have included a means of
+providing the original publication details of an essay or a chapter
+that you are citing from a subsequent reprint, e.g., a \emph{Collected
+ Essays} volume. In such a case, at least according to the
+\emph{Manual} (14.115), such details needn't be provided in notes,
+only in the bibliography, and then only if these details are
+\enquote{of particular interest.} The data would follow an
+introductory phrase like \enquote{originally published as,} making the
+problem strictly parallel to that of including details of a work in
+the original language alongside the details of its translation. I
+have addressed the latter problem with the \textsf{userf} field, which
+provides a sort of cross-referencing method for this purpose, and
+\textsf{reprinttitle} works in \emph{exactly} the same way. In the
+.bib entry for the reprint you include a cross-reference to the cite
+key of the original location using the \textsf{reprinttitle} field
+(which it may help mnemonically to think of as a \enquote{reprinted
+ title} field). The main difference between the two forms is that
+\textsf{userf} prints all but the \textsf{author} of the original
+work, whereas \textsf{reprinttitle} suppresses both the
+\textsf{author} and the \textsf{title} of the original, giving only
+the more general details, beginning with, e.g., the
+\textsf{journaltitle} or \textsf{booktitle} and continuing from there.
+The string prefacing this information will be \enquote{Originally
+ published in.} Please see the documentation on \textsf{userf} below
+for all the details on how to create .bib entries for presenting your
+data.
+
+\mybigspace This \mymarginpar{\textbf{userf}} is one of the
+supplemental fields which \textsf{biblatex} provides, and is used by
+\textsf{biblatex-chicago} for a very specific purpose. When you cite
+both a translation and its original, the \emph{Manual} (14.109)
+recommends that, in a reference list at least, you combine references
+to both texts in one entry. Lacking specific instructions about the
+author-date style, I have nonetheless chosen to implement this
+possibility also for a list of references, though in-text citations
+will still only refer to individual works. In order to follow this
+specification, I have provided a third cross-referencing system (the
+others being \textsf{crossref} and \textsf{xref}), and have chosen the
+name \textsf{userf} because it might act as a mnemonic for its
+function.
+
+\mylittlespace In order to use this system, you should start by
+entering both the original and its translation into your .bib file,
+just as you normally would. The mechanism works for any entry type,
+and the two entries need not be of the same type. In the entry for
+the \emph{translation}, you put the cite key of the original into the
+\textsf{userf} field. In the \emph{original's} entry, you need to
+include some means of preventing it appearing separately in the list
+of references, either a toggle in the \textsf{keywords} field or
+perhaps \texttt{skipbib} in the \textsf{options} field. In this
+standard case, the data for the translation will be printed first,
+followed by the string \texttt{orig. pub. as}, followed by the
+original, author omitted. As explained above (\textbf{origlanguage}),
+I have also included a way to modify the string printed before the
+original. In the entry for the \emph{translation}, you put the
+original's language in \textsf{origlanguage}, and instead of
+\texttt{originally published as}, you'll get \texttt{French edition:}
+or \texttt{Latin edition:}, etc.\ (aristotle:metaphy:gr,
+aristotle:metaphy:trans). \textbf{NB:} You can use the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedtype} \texttt{origpubas}} to replicate the
+\textsf{userf} functionality, and you can also customize the
+\mycolor{\textsf{relatedstring}} field to achieve the same result as
+with \textsf{origlanguage}.

+Skjærholt requested, for the author-date styles, a variant of the

+not be limited to the possessive. In most respects it behaves exactly

+added a new optional field to the front of the command to allow you to
+choose which declensional ending to add to the name. If you don't

+however, you can control whether the ending appears after the name(s)
+attached to each citation key, or whether it only appears after the
+names attached to the last key. By default, it only appears after the

\section{Revision History}
\label{sec:history}
-\textbf{0.9.9i: Released \today}
+\textbf{1.0rc1: Released \today}
+
+\mylittlespace Obsolete and Deprecated Features:\label{deprec:obsol}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item The 15th-edition styles are now obsolete, and have been moved to
+ a new \mycolor{\texttt{obsolete}} subdirectory. You can still use
+ them as they stand, but they won't compile against the newest
+ \textsf{biblatex}, so you'll have to make sure that you have an
+ older version (2.9a, perhaps). If you are still using them, I
+ strongly urge you to consider switching to the the 16th-edition
+ styles, which contain many new features and bug-fixes.
+\item The old Chicago-specific option \texttt{usecompiler} is
+ deprecated, and has been replaced by the standard \textsf{biblatex}
+ \mycolor{\texttt{usenamec}}. If you have been using the former in
+ your preamble or in your .bib entries, please replace it with the
+ latter, which works better across the board. \texttt{Usecompiler}
+ still \enquote{works,} just not very well.
+\end{itemize}
+
+Other New Features:
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Stefan Björk has very generously provided a Swedish localization
+ file for the package --- \mycolor{\textsf{cms-swedish.lbx}} ---
+ which can be loaded and used with \textsf{babel} just like the other
+ localizations.
+\item I have added support for \mycolor{\textbf{related}}
+ functionality to all the Chicago styles, including all the standard
+ \textsf{biblatex} \mycolor{\textbf{relatedtypes}}. It is turned on
+ by default in all styles, but you can turn it off, or alter where
+ the information is printed, using the \mycolor{\texttt{related}}
+ option in the preamble or in individual entries. In the notes \&\
+ bibliography style, \textsf{related} information is printed by
+ default only in the bibliography, but you can change that by setting
+ the option. In the author-date styles, it will only ever print in
+ the list of references, depending on the option's setting. Please
+ see sections~\ref{sec:related} and \ref{sec:authrelated} for the
+ details.
+\item I have improved the name-handling code in all styles,
+ regularizing the functioning of the \textsf{namea}, \textsf{nameb},
+ and \textsf{namec} fields with respect to the other, standard
+ \textsf{biblatex} names. The former two in particular are newly
+ available in the \textsf{collection} and \textsf{periodical} entry
+ types, and \textsf{biblatex-chicago} now recognizes the standard
+ \mycolor{\texttt{usenamea}}, \mycolor{\texttt{usenameb}}, and
+ \mycolor{\texttt{usenamec}} toggles, the last replacing the
+ deprecated \texttt{usecompiler} (as above). You can also now use
+ the \mycolor{\textbf{nameatype}} field just as you would an
+ \textsf{editortype}, extending the possibilities for identifying
+ certain roles attached specifically to \textsf{titles} as opposed to
+ \textsf{booktitles} or \textsf{maintitles}.
+\item After a request by user BenVB, I have added support for the
+ \textsf{biblatex} \mycolor{\textbf{shortjournal}} field, which
+ allows you to present abbreviated \textsf{journaltitles} in all the
+ styles. You can use the \mycolor{\texttt{journalabbrev}} option to
+ control where in your document these abbreviated forms will appear.
+ By default, the field is ignored in the notes \&\ bibliography
+ style, and appears only in citations in the author-date styles. You
+ can also print a list of journal abbreviations, rather in the manner
+ of a list of shorthands, using a command like:
+ \cmd{printbiblist\{shortjournal\}}. Even though the
+ \textsf{periodical} entry type uses the \textsf{title} and
+ \textsf{shorttitle} fields in place of \textsf{journaltitle} and
+ \textsf{shortjournal}, these entries are included in this
+ functionality, and controlled by the same \texttt{journalabbrev}
+ option. Please see s.v.\ \enquote{shortjournal} in
+ sections~\ref{sec:entryfields} and \ref{sec:fields:authdate}.
+\item Following a request by Arne Skjærholt, and his generous
+ provision of some code to get me started, I have implemented a new
+ \mycolor{\cmd{gentextcite}} citation command in all styles. The
+ \enquote{gen} part of the name refers to the genitive case, and it
+ adds a possessive ending --- \textbf{'s} by default --- to the
+ author's name in what is otherwise an ordinary \cmd{textcite}. You
+ can change the added ending however you want, using a third optional
+ field to the citation command, and you can control to which names
+ the ending is added in a \mycolor{\cmd{gentextcites}} multicite
+ command by using the \mycolor{\texttt{genallnames}} preamble and
+ entry option. Please see sections~\ref{sec:citecommands} and
+ \ref{sec:cite:authordate} for the details.
+\item Stefan Björk pointed out that \textsf{url}, \textsf{doi}, and
+ \textsf{eprint} information could be totally ignored in some entries
+ when you used the abbreviated cross-referencing functionality
+ accessed through the \textsf{crossref} and \textsf{xref} fields. At
+ his request, I have provided a new \mycolor{\texttt{xrefurl}} entry
+ and preamble option for all the styles to control the printing of
+ this information in abbreviated notes or bibliography (reference
+ list) entries. Please see sections~\ref{sec:useropts} and
+ \ref{sec:authuseropts} for the details.
+\item In a related change, I have stopped child entries inheriting
+ \textsf{url}, \textsf{doi}, and \textsf{eprint} fields from their
+ cross-ref'd parents, so if your documents rely on this behavior
+ please note that you'll have to provide such fields manually in the
+ child entries.
+\item Roger Hart long ago requested a way to control the punctuation
+ before \textsf{book-}, \textsf{main-}, or plain \textsf{titleaddon}
+ fields, and I have finally added it in this release in the form of
+ two entry and preamble options, \mycolor{\texttt{ptitleaddon}} and
+ \mycolor{\texttt{ctitleaddon}}, available in all styles. By
+ default, the former prints \cmd{addperiod}\cmd{addspace}, hence its
+ name, and the latter\,\cmd{addcomma}\cmd{addspace}, but you can
+ change either or both depending on which field you are using and
+ which sort of entry it appears in --- the default output can be your
+ guide to which option(s) to change. Please see the available valid
+ option keys in sections~\ref{sec:chicpreset} and
+ \ref{sec:authpreset}.
+\item The same user also long ago requested that the notes \&\
+ bibliography style make it possible to use \emph{Idem} when two
+ consecutive notes cite different works by the same author. You can
+ now use the standard \textsf{biblatex} option
+ \texttt{idemtracker=constrict} in your preamble to activate this in
+ your documents, but please be aware, first, that the \emph{Manual}
+ doesn't exactly approve of this and, second, that you'll only see
+ \emph{Idem} in short notes, never in full ones, which seems to be
+ the standard (\textsf{biblatex}) way of implementing this.
+\item Also only in the notes \& bibliography style, I have added a
+ \mycolor{\texttt{shorthandpunct}} option to control the punctuation
+ that appears before the first appearance of a \textsf{shorthand}
+ and/or a \textsf{shorthandintro} in a long note. The default is
+ \cmd{addspace}, but you can change it in your preamble or in
+ individual entries. Please see the available valid option keys in
+ section~\ref{sec:chicpreset}.
+\item After reading a discussion started by Ryo Furue at
+ \href{https://github.com/plk/biblatex/issues/363}{github}, I have
+ added, in the author-date styles only, a test to some spacing
+ commands to prevent line breaks immediately after abbreviation dots.
+ These tests apply only in running text, never in the list of
+ references, where good line breaks are already hard enough to find.
+\item In addition to moving the 15th-edition styles into an
+ \texttt{obsolete} subdirectory, I have also reorganized the
+ author-date style files, adding
+ \mycolor{\textsf{chicago-dates-common.cbx}} which contains the code
+ that is common to the \texttt{trad} and the standard
+ \texttt{authordate} styles. Nothing has changed in terms of loading
+ the styles, the changes being designed primarily to ease
+ maintenance.
+\item I have created two new documentation files (and an appendix) to
+ provide short introductions to the Chicago styles, introductions
+ which attempt to fill the gap between the Quickstart section
+ (\ref{quickstart}) and the fuller documentation contained in
+ sections~\ref{sec:Spec} and \ref{sec:authdate} of this file. Both
+ \mycolor{\textsf{cms-notes-intro.pdf}} and
+ \mycolor{\textsf{cms-dates-intro.pdf}} are fully hyperlinked so you
+ can move easily from formatted citations and (annotated) references
+ to .bib entries and back, with marginal references to the fuller
+ discussions here. There is also a short
+ \mycolor{\textsf{cms-trad-appendix.pdf}} file to discuss a few
+ entries that would need special treatment for the \texttt{trad}
+ style. The \textsf{sample} files for each style still exist, but I
+ intend them mainly for testing purposes, while many more (annotated)
+ entries are still available for consultation in
+ \textsf{notes-test.bib} and \textsf{dates-test.bib}.
+\item I have made a number of other small enhancements to and fixed
+ numerous bugs in all the styles, including some subtle inaccuracies
+ in author-date citations spotted by Arne Skjærholt and some macros
+ in \textsf{inproceedings} entries that had been missing for years.
+ I have provided some default values for counters in
+ \textsf{biblatex-chicago.sty} that aid in breaking long
+ \textsf{urls} across lines, but I make no pretense that these fully
+ adhere to the \emph{Manual's} specifications. I have added a few
+ \texttt{bibstrings}, currently missing in standard
+ \textsf{biblatex}, to \textsf{cms-german.lbx} for use with the
+ \mycolor{\textsf{related}} functionality. Recommendations for
+ better ones would be gratefully received.
