I'm looking for a BibTeX style (probably some TeX macros will be required as well) that will produce references like the following, which are based on the 1969 {\em A Manual of Style} from the University of Chicago Press: J. H. Hexter, ``The Loom of Language and the Fabrick of Imperatives,'' {\em American Historical Review} 69(1964):23-68; John P. Roche, {\em The Quest for the Dream} (New York: Macmillan Co., 1964), pp 204-6; Hexter, ``Loom of Language,'' p. 43-5; {\em Ibid}, p. 47; {\em Ibid}. That is, the first reference contains full information, following ones abbreviated information, and Ibid is used for all but the first of a set of consecutive references. These references would typically appear in footnotes rather than running text. I didn't see anything like this at the Clarkson archives; if anyone can tell me where to find such a BibTeX format, even if it has only part of this functionality, I'd be most appreciative. -Michael Ernst mernst@theory.lcs.mit.edu
