-<h3>Creating a bibliography style</h3>
-<p/>It <em>is</em> possible to write your own: the standard bibliography
-styles are distributed in a form with many comments, and there is a description
-of the language in the BibTeX distribution (see
-<a href="FAQ-BibTeXing.html">BibTeX documentation</a>).
-However, it must be admitted that the language in which BibTeX
-styles are written is pretty obscure, and one would not recommend
-anyone who&#8217;s not a confident programmer to write their own, though
-minor changes to an existing style may be within the grasp of many.
-<p/>If your style isn&#8217;t too &#8216;far out&#8217;, you can probably generate it by
-using the facilities of the <i>custom-bib</i> bundle. This
-contains a file <i>makebst.tex</i>, which runs you through a text menu
-to produce a file of instructions, with which you can generate your
-own <code>.bst</code> file. This technique doesn&#8217;t offer entirely new styles
-of document, but the system&#8217;s &#8220;master BibTeX styles&#8221; already
-offer significantly more than the BibTeX standard set.
-<p/>An alternative, which is increassingly often recommended, to use
-<a href="FAQ-biblatex.html"><i>biblatex</i></a>. <i>Biblatex</i> offers
-many hooks for adjusting the format of the output of your &#8216;basic&#8217;
-BibTeX style, and a collection of &#8216;contributed&#8217; styles have also
-started to appear.
