Custom cite command












0















I'm trying to create a custom cite command that takes in three arguments: the book/article name and the initial and final pages of the part that I'm citing. This is the code so far:



renewcommand{cite}[3]{

(vedi~ifthenelse{equal{#2}{#3}}

{parencite[pno~#2]{#1}}

{parencite[ppno~#2~hspace{-0.035cm}--hspace{-0.035cm}~#3]{#1}}hspace{0.035cm})\}


So if the input is



cite{book_1}{64}{64}


the output is



enter image description here



I'd like to modify is so that that output corresponds to the input



cite{book_1, 64}


if the initial and final cited pages are the same, and



cite{book_1, 64-65}


if they're different. Is there a way to do this?






biblatex bibliographies citing

  • Why do you want to do this, rather than just use the optional arguments to the cite command? e.g. cite[p.64]{book1}

Personally, I don't think the usual input




autocite[64]{sigfridsson}

autocite[64-65]{sigfridsson}



is too complicated or far inferior to cite{key}{64}{65}.



Here is a solution that only slightly modifies the macro mknormrange to drop the second page number if it is equal to the first. We then need to change around the order of commands in the postnote formats to give expected output with respect to "p."/"pp.". Then you can use the standard biblatex postnote syntax




autocite[<startpage>-<endpage>]{<key>}





documentclass[british]{article}

            How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

            Image
            3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question

            Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

            Image
            up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title.
