I am currently trying to change the font size of the 'References' title that appears when I execute the '\thebibliography' command at the end of my document (whose style is 12pt article). I realize that this will involve issuing a \renewcommand to change some definitions in the appropriate .sty files, but all of my attempts have resulted in TeX syntax errors. Does anyone out there in netland have a solution to this problem? BTW, I am 'running' my document on a Sun-3, although I doubt this would be a factor. Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Never trust a pilot with clean hands.| Andrew Tron at Princeton University Never address a major international | awtron@phoenix.princeton.edu (Internet) terrorist as "Bubbi". | uunet!phoenix!awtron (UUCP)

Jones (dmjones@theory.lcs.mit.edu) answered my question. Basically, one embeds the definition of \thebibliography in the preamble, with the necessary redefinition. The key to this all is to surround this definition with a \makeatletter .... \makeatother pair, otherwise you get the TeX syntax error that I originalyy experienced. My thanks goes out to him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Never trust a pilot with clean hands.| Andrew Tron at Princeton University Never address a major international | awtron@phoenix.princeton.edu (Internet) terrorist as "Bubbi". | uunet!phoenix!awtron (UUCP)
