Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `opcit' makes the bibliographical references to appear as footnotes. It automatically substitutes conventional shorthands such as `Op. Cit.' and `Idem' for multiply cited works.
The user can still append a `References' list at the end of the document. The documentation has a section on how to modify the BibTeX style. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
