The option [nospace] removes that space, and the option [space] replaces it with an ordinary inter-word space. o Compress lists of three or more consecutive numbers to one number range which can be split, with difficulty, after the dash. All numbers should be greater than zero. E.g., if you used to get the (nonsense) list [7,5,6,?,4,9,8,Einstein,6], then this style will give [?,Einstein,4-6,6-9]. Compression of ranges is disabled by the [nocompress] package option. o Sort citations into ascending order (this is the default, but may also be declared with the package option [sort]). The [nosort] package option turns off sorting. Sortable citations must fit one of these forms: 1. <number> 2. <optional-char><number><optional-char> 3. <number><separator-char><number> Forms 1 and 2 are really the same, and they mix well, but form 3 is separate and if used simultaneously with form 1 the citations become, ummm, mixed. Non-sortable forms (those not listed) are printed before all sortable forms. Here <number> means a positive integer (natural number) less than some limit (different for each form), <optional-char> is a single printable character (or nothing), and <separator-char> is also a single printable character. o Sorting of citations with prefix and/or suffix characters is done so so different prefixes are grouped separately, and suffixes form sub-lists for the same number. Compression knows about suffixes, so you can get lists like [18a-18c,19] or [A2,Q1,Q3-Q5]. o Allow, but discourage, line breaks within the group of citations (after dashes, and after punctuation). Penalties are \citepunctpenalty and \citemidpenalty. o Put a high-penalty breakpoint (value \citeprepenalty) before the citation (unless there is a different penalty specified there). Also, adjust the spacing: if there is no space or if there is extra space due to some punctuation, then change to one inter-word space. E.g., A space will be inserted here\cite{Larry,Curly,Moe}. o All breaks can be forbidden with the [nobreak] package option. They can be adjusted independently by setting the parameters \citeprepenalty, \citemidpenalty, and \citepunctpenalty. Use \mathchardef to change these penalty values! E.g., \mathchardef\citeprepenalty=9999 (Yes, that is obscure but I don't want to use up counters or to pretend they are counters.) o With package option [superscript] (or [super] for short), display citation numbers as superscripts (unless they have optional notes, causing them to be printed on-line with brackets). Superscripted citations follow these additional rules: -> Superscript citations use THE SAME INPUT FORMAT as ordinary citations; this style will ignore spaces before the citation, and move trailing punctuation before the superscript citation. For example, "information \cite{source};" ignores the space before \cite and puts the semicolon before the number, just as if you had typed "information;$^{12}$". You may switch off movement with the [nomove] package option (only relevant with [superscript]). -> The punctuation characters that will migrate before the superscript are listed in the macro \CiteMoveChars, which you can redefine. The default set of characters is ".,;:"; Perhaps ! and ? should be included too, but they weren't listed in the APS style manual I looked at, and I agree with that design choice because they put too much visual separation between the cite and what it applies to. Feel free to redefine \CiteMoveChars. Quotes were listed as coming before the cite notation, but they should be typed before the \cite command in any case because both on-line and superscript cites come after what is quoted (when citing a quotation). This gives one difficulty -- punctuation following quotes won't migrate inside the quotation: e.g., "``Transition State Theory''\cite{Eyring}." gives out ``Transition State Theory''.$^8$, but you may want the period inside the quotes, thus: ``Transition State Theory.''$^8$. -> Doubling of periods (.., ?., !.) is checked for and suppressed. The spacing after the citation is set according to the final punctuation mark moved. There is a problem with double periods after a capitalized abbreviation or directly after \@ : Both of "N.A.S.A. \cite{space}." and "et al.\@ \cite{many}." will give doubled periods. These can be fixed as follows: "N.S.A\@. \cite{space}." and "et al.\ \cite{many}.". The NSA example gives the wrong spacing when there is no citation. Sorry. Use "\ " after abbreviations like et al. to get the right spacing within a sentence whether or not a citation follows. -> Remember, these rules regarding punctuation only apply when the [super] or [superscript] option was given (or overcite.sty used) and the [nomove] option was NOT given. o Define \citen to get just the numbers without the brackets or superscript and extra formatting. Aliases are \citenum and \citeonline for easy conversion to other citation packages. o All of \nocite, \cite, and \citen ignore spaces in the input tags. Although each \cite command sorts its numbers, better compression into ranges can usually be achieved by carefully selecting the order of the \bibitem entries or the order of initial citations when using BibTeX. Having the entries pre-sorted will also save processing time, especially for long lists of numbers. Customization: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are several options for \usepackage{cite}, some already mentioned. [superscript] use superscrpts for cites without optional notes [super] alias for [superscript] (like natbib) [verbose] UNUSED NOW! (do repeat duplicate warnings) [ref] uses the format "[Ref.~12, given note]" (useful with the superscript option) [nospace] eliminates the spaces after commas in the number list [space] uses a full inter-word space after the commas [nobreak] eliminate all line-breaks [nosort] prevents sorting of the numbers (default is to sort, and the... [sort] option is provided for completeness). [nomove] prevents moving the superscript cite after punctuation. [move] is the default [noadjust] disables `smart' handling of space before a cite [adjust] is the default [nocompress] inhibit compression of consecutive numbers into ranges [compress] is the default [biblabel] define the bibliography label as a superscript If your citations are not numeric, then you should probably not use cite.sty, but if you must, then at least use the [nosort,nocompress] options. There are several commands that you may redefine (using \renewcommand or \def) to change the formatting of citation lists: command function default ---------- ----------------------- ---------------------------- \citeform reformats each number nothing \citepunct printed between numbers comma + penalty + thin space \citeleft left delimiter of list [ \citeright right delimeter of list ] \citemid printed before note comma + penalty + space \citedash used in a compressed range endash + penalty \CiteMoveChars charcters that move .,:; \OverciteFont font sel. for superscripts \fontsize{\sf@size}... The left/mid/right commands don't affect the formatting of superscript citations. You may use \renewcommand to change any of these. Remember, these commands are extensions made by this package; they are not regular LaTeX. Some examples of changes: 1: \renewcommand\citeform[1]{\romannumeral 0#1}} % roman numerals i,vi 2: \renewcommand\citeform[1]{(#1)} % parenthesized numbers (1)-(5),(9) 3: \renewcommand\citeform{\thechapter.} % by chapter: ^{2.18-2.21} 4: \renewcommand\citepunct{,} % no space and no breaks at commas 5: \renewcommand\citemid{; } % semicolon before optional note 6: \renewcommand\citeleft{(} % parentheses around list with note \renewcommand\citeright{)} % parentheses around list with note The appearance of the whole citation list is governed by \@cite, (for full- sized cites) and \@citess (for superscripts). For more extensive changes to the formatting, redefine these. For example, to get brackets around the list of superscript numbers you can do: \def\@citess#1{\textsuperscript{[#1]}} after \makeatletter. Related Note: The superscript option does not affect the numbering format of the bibliography; the "[12]" style is still the default. To get superscripts in the bibliography (at any time) you can define \renewcommand\@biblabel[1]{\textsuperscript{#1}} Aw, OK, for your convenience, there is the [biblabel] package option that just performs this definition (sort of). Line breaking can be turned off using the [nobreak] option. It can be controlled more precisely by changing three numeric values, assigned with \mathchardef, for controlling the line-break penalties: \citeprepenalty penalty before cite default \@highpenalty \citemidpenalty penalty used in \citemid default \@medpenalty \citepunctpenalty penalty used in \citepunct default 1000 (Use \mathchardef assignments like \mathchardef\citemidpenalty=900. These were chosen so as to not waste registers.) Alternatively, the commands \citemid, \citedash, and \citepunct can be redefined to use different penalty parameters, or none at all. % Version 1991: Ignore spaces after commas in the parameter list. Move most of % \citen into \@cmpresscites for speed. Give the proper \spacefactor afterwards. % Version 1992: make \citepunct hold the punctuation between numbers (for ease % of changing). Add \/ to allow hyphenation of previous word, and look better % in italics. % 1992a: Make it work with NFSS. (Thank you C. Hamlin and Rainer Schoepf) % % Version 3.0 (1992): Rewrite, including sorting. Make entries like "4th" % be treated properly as text. % 3.1: Bug fixes (and Joerg-Martin Schwarz also convinced me to use \ifcat) % 3.2: NFSS support was wrong--added \reset@font. Suppress repetitions of % warnings. Include \@extra@b@citeb hook. % 3.3: Handle LaTeX2e options. Introduce various customization hooks. % 3.4: Heuristics to avoid removing \hspace glue before on-line \cite. % Make \nocite ignore spaces in list, simplify. Aliases for \citen. % Compatability with amsmath (which defines \over). % 3.5: Replace \reset@font with \selectfont so italics are preserved % Include \G@refundefinedtrue. Fix cite-with-note bug (Lars Engebretsen). % 3.6: Add nosort option. % 3.7: Add nomove option; catcode preservation and global \@no@sparg for % french.sty; warnings in \nocite. % 3.8: \citedash hook, fix token look-ahead (Heiko Selber), noadjust, babel. % 3.9: More babel-compatibility hacks. Punctuation move with \frencspacing. % 4.0: Combine overcite with cite: [superscript] option. Also add [nocompress] % option and \CiteMoveChars; multibib hooks. % 4.01 \bf -> \bfseries % 4.02 Bury undouble action in a separate macro to avoid extra \fi error. % 5.0 Hyperref and backref compatability! Penalty parameters and [nobreak]. % Letter prefix and suffix sorting. Stop suppressing multiple warnings. % 5.1 Fix a missing "b@" (disappearing named cites), fix nosort % 5.2 More robust treatment of non-numbers % 5.3 Handle sort/compress of compound citation numbers (number by chapter) % such as 3.18 or 5-3. Note that these compounds cannot have prefix or % suffix letters (not enough bits in the maximum TeX number). % % TODO: other sorting, like dictionary or roman numeral % TODO: create special "final punct" that could be ", and " and likewise % a "single punct" that could be " and " % % Send problem reports to asnd@triumf.ca Test file integrity: ASCII 32-57, 58-126: !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789 :;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
