That would be wonderful! Will you publish a patch or, better, a branch
somewhere, even if it's not ready for master?
I don't know if this is helpful, but I'm posting an updated grammar
below for the [cite: ...] part of the syntax that uses parentheses
around `cite' to indicate the distinction between in-text and
parenthetical citations. It doesn't include any clauses for a subtype
label or for extra key-value pairs.
Best,
Richard
We need a category of /citation/ objects, which require the following
properties (the names here are not important and could be changed):
- is-parenthetical (boolean; nil means is in-text)
- common-prefix (text)
- common-suffix (text)
- references (list)
Each reference in the list of references should be a plist with the
following properties:
- prefix (text)
- suffix (text)
- key (string)
- suppress-author (boolean; t means author name should not be output)
- is-full (boolean; t means a full bibliography entry should be
output in-place)
The category of citations has the following grammar:
- A CITATION is a PARENTHETICAL-CITATION or an IN-TEXT citation.
- A PARENTHETICAL-CITATION is either a SIMPLE-PARENTHETICAL or a
CITATION-LIST whose TAG is a PARENTHESIZED-TAG.
- An IN-TEXT-CITATION is either a SIMPLE-IN-TEXT, or a
CITATION-LIST whose TAG is a BARE-TAG.
- A SIMPLE-PARENTHETICAL is a KEY immediately surrounded by square
brackets.
- A SIMPLE-IN-TEXT is a BARE-KEY.
- A CITATION-LIST has the format
[TAG: PREFIX; INDIVIDUAL-REFERENCE; ... INDIVIDUAL-REFERENCE; SUFFIX]
where the initial PREFIX and final SUFFIX are optional. At least
one INDIVIDUAL-REFERENCE must be present. The colon and
semicolons here are literal and indicate the end of the TAG and
the end of a PREFIX or INDIVIDUAL-REFERENCE respectively.
- A TAG is either a PARENTHESIZED-TAG or a BARE-TAG.
- A PARENTHESIZED-TAG is a BARE-TAG, immediately surrounded by parentheses.
- A BARE-TAG is: `cite'.
- An INDIVIDUAL-REFERENCE has the format:
PREFIX KEY SUFFIX
The KEY is obligatory, and the prefix and suffix are optional.
- A BARE-KEY is a KEY with immediately-preceding whitespace
- A KEY optionally begins with `-', and obligatorily contains `@' or
`&' followed by a string of characters which begins with a letter
or `_', and may contain alphanumeric characters and the following
internal punctuation characters:
:.#$%&-+?<>~/
- A PREFIX or SUFFIX is arbitrary text (except `;', `]', and KEYs)
which may contain only the following Org objects:
- bold
- code
- entity
- italic
- latex-fragment
- line-break
- strike-through
- subscript
- superscript
- underline
- superscript
