I am a little surprised because I would think that the people who use ConTeXt tend to be more from the sciences than the humanities, and so I wouldn't have expected APA style as the default.
APA is used in the humanities‽
(1) I'd like it such that each time I use \cite, the full citation and not just "(Some One, 1967)" appears in a footnote, rather than inline.
You need to clarify two things here: 1 You want to map the “\cite” macro to something like “\footcite”? Have you tried something along the lines of this \let \goodoldcite \cite \unexpanded\def\cite#1{\footnote{\goodoldcite{#1}}} (untested)? 2 You want “\cite” to retrieve full citations? Assuming this requires that they contain the complete names of authors, editors and stuff, you might be out of luck. Last time I checked this was impossible to realize within the constraints of the bib module: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100212.073108.f4699471.en.html Hth. Anyways, you’re right, the native Context bib support is not really fulfilling. Philipp
I'm thinking this is done with one of the setup commands, but not sure how to do this. My *tex is fairly weak.
(2) I'd like to do the above, but also in some cases be able to specify a specific page number or anecdote to add to the footnote.
(3) I'd like any entry in the BibTeX database that has a url to have the title clickable such that the browser is invoked to that url. Which brings me to the next question.
(4) Since my database is specified in the .bib format, what is the preferred way of specifying a URL where there is one? I've seen a bunch of different suggestions ranging from using the 'note' tag to wrapping in a \def.
(5) Is there any way to dump a list of all the references, similar to \placepublications command that just lists references that contain a certain keyword or something? e.g. organized by a category?
Take care Pont,
