BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ removing line breaks in bibliography

[s0198362]

Hi.

I want to remove the line breaks in my bibliography so that the citation style would be as follows

[1]a reference. [2] a second reference. [3] etc.

rather than

[1]a reference.
[2]a second reference.
[3]etc.


Is there an easy way to do this using Bibtex?

Thanks

Perhaps you can make a find in the TeX Catalogue [1]. It lists several tools for bibliography management.

To create a references list with no line breaks (a single paragraph), you can do this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[...options...]{article}
\usepackage[...options...]{biblatex}
\usepackage[...options...]{paralist}
\bibliography{your_bib_file}

% for bibliography formatting via paralist enum environment
\renewenvironment*{thebibliography}{
   \pointlessenum
   \begin{inparaenum}
   \renewcommand\makelabel[1]{  \textbf{[##1]}}
}{\end{inparaenum}}

\begin{document}

words \cite{yourPaper09}

more words \cite{anotherPaper08}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

See
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/ ... /paralist/
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/ ... /biblatex/
for more info and options.

Dear participants,

I have tried to get rid of line brakes in bibliography.
I use a mac and I've downloaded livetex or mactex.

As suggested on this forum I used the following

Code: Select all

\documentclass[...options...]{article}
\usepackage[...options...]{biblatex}
\usepackage[...options...]{paralist}
\bibliography{your_bib_file}

% for bibliography formatting via paralist enum environment
\renewenvironment*{thebibliography}{
\pointlessenum
\begin{inparaenum}
\renewcommand\makelabel[1]{ \textbf{[##1]}}
}{\end{inparaenum}}

\begin{document}

words \cite{yourPaper09}

more words \cite{anotherPaper08}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

as suggested but, the references still appear as traditionally, i.e. numbered and each on new line.
Can anybody help?

I use latexshop for editing and I first latex the source file, then bibtex-it and then latex it again twice. The references appear in the text but in the ref section, the line breaks are still on as nothing has happened.

Many thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,

Istvan.
