In this example, we use classical \ext{bib} files in order -to extract only publications by one single person, indicating the names of the -possible other authors. This gives, for instance: -\begin{myex} -\def\refname{Books by Michel \textsc{Goossens}} -\begin{thebibliography}{9} -\bibitem{companion} -{\em the \LaTeX{} Companion}. -Addison-Wesley, 1993. -Joint work with Frank Mittelbach and Alexander Samarin. - -\bibitem{graphics} -{\em the \LaTeX{} Graphics Companion}. -Addison-Wesley, 1999. -Joint work with Sebastian Rahtz and Frank Mittelbach. - -\bibitem{webc} -{\em the \LaTeX{} Web Companion}. -Addison-Wesley, 1999. -Joint work with Sebastian Rahtz. - -\end{thebibliography} -\end{myex} - -There are three important points here: -\begin{itemize} -\item In this case, the entries to be cited are extracted by the style file; -\item Typesetting of names is a little bit different. -\end{itemize} - -The third difference consists in the way the style is configured: Instead of -asking the user to modify the \ext{bst} file, which is rarely desirable, we -add a new entry-type, named \nient{config}. A \nient{config} entry will define -the name of the author whose publications are to be extracted, as well as some -other configuration variables. - -\mysection{An addressbook} - -A list of addresses is a database, that has to be sorted, grouped and typeset. -\bt should be able to do that... - -To that aim, we have to completely redefine the fields, entry-types, and -functions. Fields include names, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail -addresses,~... Here is an example of the output: - -\bigskip -\makeatletter -\font\lettre=cmssdc10 at 20pt -\def\at{@} -\ifx\sautepage\@undefined% -\def\sautepage{\null\cleardoublepage}\fi -\ifx\ecritlettre\@undefined% -\def\ecritlettre#1#2#3#4#5{ -\vbox to 0pt{ -\vspace{#3mm}\hspace{#1mm} -\smash{\colorbox[rgb]{.8,.8,.8}{\lettre \ \ -\vrule height #2mm depth #2mm width 0pt% -\vrule height 8mm depth 0mm width 0pt% -\hbox to #4mm{#5\hfil\null}% -}} -\vspace{-#3mm}\hspace{-#1mm}}}\fi -\small -\makeatother -\ecritlettre{157}{5}{10}{20}{mn} -\noindent -\begin{center} -\begin{tabular}{|p{.30\textwidth}|p{.4\textwidth}p{.18\textwidth}|} -\hline -{\vrule height 5mm width 0mm -{\normalsize \textsc{Markey} Nicolas -}} \vrule height 0mm depth 5mm width 0mm & -\vrule height 5mm width 0mm -LSV -- ENS Cachan\endgraf -61, avenue du Pr\'esident Wilson\endgraf -94235 \textsc{Cachan} C\'edex\vrule depth 3mm width 0mm -& \vrule height 5mm width 0mm -\Telefon \hfill01.47.40.75.32\endgraf -\Faxmachine \hfill01.47.40.24.64\endgraf -\\ & -\multicolumn{2}{l|}{\texttt{markey\at lsv.ens-cachan.fr}} \vrule depth 2mm - width 0mm -\\ \hline -\end{tabular} -\end{center} - -As in the previous example, I defined a \nient{config} entry-type in order to -define how letters should be grouped together,~... - -\mysection{Exporting, extracting and cleaning bibliographic entries} -\label{bibexport} - -It sometimes occurs that you have to extract a part of your bibliographic -database, for instance for sending it together with a \LaTeX~document. Several -tools already exist for doing this, but they generally can't handle crossrefs, -macros, string abbreviations,~... If fact, \bt can do this on its own: You -simply have to ask the bibliography style to format its output as a -\ext{bib} database (The result will be named \ext{bbl}, since there is no way -to tell \bt to write somewhere else). This technique has many advantages: It -ensures that the fields are treated exactly as \bt would treat them with -another style file; abbreviations are automatically expanded; It is easy to -extract all the references by one author (remember that names could be encoded -in many different manners inside a \ext{bib} database),~... -The package \verb+bibexport+ implements these techniques: -\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/bibexport/} - -\mysection{Using several languages in one bibliography} - -Classical bibliography style only handle one language, generally English. -Handling several languages is quite tricky: First, when filling the \ext{bib} -file, you must ensure not to write language-dependant data. Namely, for -instance, months should be entered numerically. Moreover, \bt adds some words -while processing the entries, such as the ``and'' before the last author name. - -There are several solution for handling several languages: -\begin{itemize} -\item Designing one style file per language. This is somewhat tiring to do, - but not really complicated, and many such translations already exist. - - French styles are available on - \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/bib-fr/}. In - those styles, I put every translated word at the beginning of the file, so - that it is easy to adapt the translation. - -\item Another solution is to replace language-dependant words with a \LaTeX - command. This is done in \textsf{babelbib} - (\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/babelbib/}), - developed by Harald Harders. - Those style files require that you use the package \sty{babel}, and allows - you to define one language for each entry (and thus to use the right - hyphenation patterns). -\end{itemize} - - -\mysection{A glossary} - -A glossary is a dictionary defining technical terms that appear in a -document. Glossaries are generally made using the index mechanisms of \LaTeX. -But \bt can also do that (and even better than with \nicmd{index}, since it -could extract definitions from a general dictionary). Moreover, it is -possible to add reference to pages where the term is used by using the -\sty{backref} package. See for instance the package \sty{gloss}, developed by -Jose Luis Diaz de Arriba and Javier Bezos. |
