latex/bibtex python paper?

Hi All,

Does anyone have a good template that I might use for writing a python
paper in latex/bibtex? I've got the paper mostly done, but am having
issues with the references. I am definitely not an expert at
latex/bibtex. Right now, I have references defined like this:

@article{imp,
title = {imp -- Access the import internals},
journal = "http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-imp.html",
author = {Python Software Foundation},
year = {2005}
}

When I cite these, I get something like this (Foundation[2005]). Is
anyone willing to offer up a tarball of a complete paper with sty and
bst that would make for a nice python paper?

Thanks!

You really, really should Google around for BibTeX information, or ask in a
TeX newsgroup. (Unless I misunderstood you, and Python is somehow involved
as something more than the subject of your paper?)

I have used BibTeX in the past, but forgotten the details. Getting the exact
citation style you want is tricky (and you didn't even say what you wanted
the citations to look like). There seem to be many newer, contributed
styles which aren't trivial to find without help.

I would use

@Manual{imp,
title = {imp -- Access the import internals},
key = {imp},
organization = {Python Software Foundation},
address = {\url{http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-imp.html}},
year = 2005
}

You need hyperref for \url.
With \bibliographyst yle{apalike} I get imp (2005), but that depends on what
you want your references look like. I think you better ask in a TeX group
about that.

Kurt,

Try <http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?lab el=citeURL> and search
this site (the famous UK TeX FAQ) at
<http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?int roduction=yes#s earch> for
other info.

You might also ask this question at the comp.text.tex group (which, in
my experience, is as nice as this one).

Questions like this are better asked in comp.text.tex, where they are
on-topic.

There is a fine TeX/LaTeX/etc. FAQ at:

http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html

Finally, here are some sample bibtex results:

Dear list, I am writing a manual for my python extension using Python (2.4) latex classes. Everything seems to be fine except that the subscripts are as big as normal text ( see page 55 of http://bp6.stat.rice.edu:8080/simuPOP_doc/userGuide.pdf ). I doubt that the following piece of code in python.sty is causing the problem but can not fix it. (I get errors when commenting out this block of code.) Does anyone know what is happening here?

I'm looking for a module that is able to create valid BibTex documents. I'm currently using string substitution to create the content, but it is not validated in any way. The only BibTex creation module available in Python (that I can find) is XdkBibTeX (http://artis.imag.fr/Membres/Xavier.Decoret/resources/xdkbibtex/). It is a python wrapper around a C library. Has anyone used this? More interestingly to me... has anyone
