Unfortunately, their BibTeX style file, +elsarticle-num.bst (version 1.1, 2008-10-13), is a bit broken. With +the help of Nicolas Markey's excellent [Tame the +BeaST](http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/bibtex/tamethebeast/), +I've [fixed it up](/~wking/tools/elsarticle/elsarticle-num.bst), so it +runs without errors (!), works with +[natbib](http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/natbib.html)'s +`\citet{}`, and conforms with the examples posted in the +[International Journal of Biological Macromolecules' author +guide](http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/525446/authorinstructions#68000). + +Update: Oct. 6. Turns out [the code linked from +Elsevier](http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authorsview.authors/elsarticle) +is out of date. Rishi over at +[River-Valley](http://www.river-valley.com) (writers of the elsarticle +package) pointed me to some [more up to date documentation and +source](http://support.river-valley.com/wiki/index.php?title=Elsarticle.cls). +Version 1.2 fixes most of my problems (with elsarticle-num-names.bst), +but I'm still not sure why it doesn't replace elsarticle-num.bst +entirely... + + +[[!tag linux]] +[[!tag programming]] -- 2.26.2
