Re: ~\cite{input} giving (1; 2; 4) instead of [1, 2, 4]

Sorry folks... I've just figured it out on my own, but just in case someone searches for this same issue, here's how I sorted it out:

The citations in the main body were being displayed as (1; 2; 4) instead of what I wanted: [1, 2, 4]. I only just realised that if I added:

\bibpunct{(}{)}{;}{a ...

Re: Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

Joseph,

Thank you for all the help... I've just finally sorted out the issue I had with [2, 3, 5] being displayed as (2; 3; 5). I only just realised that if I added:

\bibpunct{(}{)}{;}{a}{,}{,}

into my preamble and changed it to:

\bibpunct{[}{]}{,}{a}{,}{,}

I got EXACTLY what I needed! Again ...

~\cite{input} giving (1; 2; 4) instead of [1, 2, 4]

Hi, I was recently having an issue with tweaking the output of personalised references in my bibliography. I eventually had to use the MAKEBST or cutom-bib programme to make my own style. However now that i've finally have them the way I want them, for some reason, in the main body of the document ...

Re: Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

Hi Joseph,

So i've been trying to sort out the issue of tweaking the output of my bibliography references, and I eventually tried to make my own... well using a MAKEBST or custom-bib progam (...guessing you might know if it as you suggested it?)

Anyhow i've finally got it so my references look ...

Re: Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

OK sorry joseph... i thought the trouble might be there. I'm not sure how minimal i should be with an example becuase there's a lot in there to be honest. Also I've split my preamble and chapters each into seperate .tex files (each in their own folder). Below, I'll put what's in my preamble and when ...

Re: Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

The only things in relation to bibtex that I have would be...

In my preamble:
\usepackage[sort&compress]{natbib}
\usepackage{chapterbib}
\renewcommand\bibname{References}

Each chapter is it's own .tex file and at the start of each I have:
\bibliographystyle{unsrt}
% Body of chapter here ...

Re: Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

Hi Joseph, well firstly I was mentioning 'packages', but I did mean 'styles'. Sorry! Secondly, the subject area is physics. Generally the title would NOT be included in research papers, etc, but it's the general style/format for the university, but either way, the research journal title would not be ...

Editing unsrt output ...or similar .bst package?

Hi, I've written my thesis and need to edit the output of my references/biblography. I used the unsrt.bst package for all my references because I (a) needed to cite things using the [1,2,5] format in the body of work, and I (b) have the bibliography set up so the refs are ordered as they were cited ...
