CTAN Update: biblatex-dw
by CTAN Announcements 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

On Mon, 19 Oct 2009, Dominik Wassenhoven submitted an update to the biblatex-dw package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.2l - BUGFIX: With footnote-dw, the references to the first citations did not work, when refsections were used. This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: With xref=true, when no volume was present in an @inreference entry as well as in its corresponding @reference entry, the bibstring 'vol.' was printed. This is now fixed. - New option 'shortjournal'. If set to 'true', the field 'shortjournal' is used instead of 'journaltitle'. This is useful for journal abbreviations. The default is 'false'. - New option 'acronyms'. If set to 'true', shorthands (and with 'shortjournal=true' also the abbreviated journal titles) are set with the command mkbibacro, but only if the entry option 'acronym' is set to 'true'. The default is 'false'. - New option 'pageref' (in footnote-dw only). If set to 'true', it adds the page to the footnote number pointing to the full citation if it is located on a different page. This option is the same as in the standard styles 'verbose-note' and 'verbose-inote'. The default is false. - In footnote-dw, the pointer to the earlier citation is suppressed if a shorthand exists and the option 'citedas' is true. Note that you can override the global option 'citedas' by setting the entry option 'citedas'. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=biblatex-dw (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
