With this option, you can now decide, whether you want to have the fields 'origlocation', 'origpublisher' and 'origyear' to be printed or not. -> New option 'origfieldsformat=parens|brackets|punct'. The default is 'punct' which means that the new punctuation mark 'origfieldspunct' (default: addcommaspace) is used to introduce the reprint phrase.

With this option you can set the width of the label in the list of shorthands to any length (e.g. '3em' or '40pt'). This is useful if you have very long shorthands. -> New punctuation command 'shorthandpunct' which is only exerted when you use the option 'shorthandwidth'. Then it is set to a colon. You can redefine this punctuation command with enewcommand. -> New length 'shorthandsep' which is only exerted if you use the option 'shorthandwidth'. The length 'shorthandsep' defines the spacing after the label in the list of shorthands. - Improved package warnings. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblate… .
