[OS X TeX] Re: apalike bib style

[John B. Thoo]

Hi, Alan.  Two things appear differently.

1. In the References, it lists items as, e.g.,

    [Burton, 2003] Burton, E. M. (2003).  The History....

instead of just

    Burton, E. M. (2003).  The History....

2. When I use \cite{burton}, e.g., it outputs

    [Burton, 2003]

instead of using round brackets

    (Burton, 2003).

Also, when I use \cite{burton, fine}, e.g., it outputs

    [Burton, 2003, Fine 1961]

instead of using a semicolon

    (Burton, 2003; Fine 1961).


Cheers,
---John.
