version 1.2f
- Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8c. Note that from
this version on biblatex 0.8c is required, so you have to
update biblatex as well if you would like to use
biblatex-dw 1.2f!
-> The biblatex-dw option 'idem' was replaced by the new
biblatex option 'idemtracker'. The standard setting is
'idemtracker=constrict'. If you would like to switch
off the idem functionality, you can use
'idemtracker=false'. For more information on the
'idemtracker' option see the biblatex manual.
- New options 'doi', 'eprint', 'isbn' and 'issn' which can
take the values 'true' and 'false'. With these options
you can decide whether you want to have printed the
corresponding fields or not. The default for these
options is 'false' (as was the standard before).
- New option 'idemfont' which can take the values
'smallcaps', 'italic', 'bold' and 'normal'. The default
is none which means that the 'idem' string is printed in
the font shape of 'namefont'.
- New option 'ibidemfont' which can take the values
'smallcaps', 'italic' and 'bold'. The default is none
which means that the 'ibidem' string is printed in normal
font shape.
- New macro 'jourvolstring' which introduces the volume of
an article entry. The default is a space (as it was the
case before), but you can adjust it to your needs, e.g.:
\renewcommand*{\jourvolstring}{\addspace vol\adddot\space}
- New macro 'journumstring' which introduces the number in
article entries, if the option 'journumafteryear' is set
to 'true'. The default for this macro is a comma,
followed by the bibstring 'number' and a non-breakable
space. You can redefine it to your needs, e.g.:
\renewcommand*{\journumstring}{\addspace}
- If there is no volume in an article entry, but the month
field is set, the date is separated from the journal
title by a comma and a space, not only a space.
- Fixed some BUGS concerning the xref functionality.
- Reorganized some bibliography drivers.
- Enhanced the documentation.
