 Version history
 ---------------

v1.2i [2009/05/10]
 - BUGFIX: When using option 'usetranslator=true', the 
   translator string was not aware of the option 
   'editorstring'. This is now fixed.
 - Improved bibmacro 'journal+issuetitle' which is now aware 
   of the option 'edbeforetitle'.
 - The 'typeeditor' field is now supported. It can take the 
   values 'editor' and 'compiler'. This field determines the 
   editor string after the name of the editor(s). The 
   abbreviated forms are 'ed.' for 'editor' and 'comp.' for 
   'compiler'. In German, both strings are the same 
   ('Herausgeber' or 'Hrsg.').
 - In English, the 'idem' string is now declined (idem, 
   eadem, idem in singular; eidem, eaedem, eadem in plural) 
   and no longer abbreviated, even if abbreviate=true is 
   used.
 - Improved the handling of 'origfields=true'.
 - In German, the string 'reprint' (Nachdruck) is now 
   abbreviated as 'Ndr.', not as 'Nachdr.'
 - Compound abbreviations are now separated by a thin space 
   rather than a normal one. At the moment, this affects 
   only the German localization in strings like 'hg. v.'

v1.2h [2009/03/29]
 - BUGFIX: The 'idem' functionality is now also aware of 
   page breaks. If the citation is the first on a page (or 
   double page in twoside mode), the 'idem' is suppressed. 
   If you don't want this behaviour, you can set the option 
   'pagetracker=false'.

v1.2g [2009/03/20]
 - Option 'journalnumber' replaces 'journumafteryear'. The 
   option was enhanced and can now take the values 
   'standard', 'afteryear' and 'date'. The value 'standard' 
   is the same as the old journumafteryear=false, 
   'afteryear' is the same as the old journumafteryear=true. 
   The new value 'date' assures that the date is printed, 
   even if the field issue is given (this is not the case in 
   the standard styles). Additionally, 'journalnumber=date' 
   prints the number before the date, if the date (at least 
   year and month) is given, but it prints the number after 
   the year, if only the year is given (i.e. if the date is 
   not further specified). See the documentation for 
   details. The default is 'journalnumber=standard'.
 - Improved german-dw.lbx.
 - Adjusted the documentation for screen reading. A printer 
   friendly version can still be compiled from the source.

v1.2f [2009/02/15]
 - Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8c. Note that from 
   this version on biblatex 0.8c is required, so you have to
   update biblatex as well if you would like to use 
   biblatex-dw 1.2f!
   -> The biblatex-dw option 'idem' was replaced by the new
      biblatex option 'idemtracker'. The standard setting is
      'idemtracker=constrict'. If you would like to switch 
      off the idem functionality, you can use 
      'idemtracker=false'. For more information on the 
      'idemtracker' option see the biblatex manual.
 - New options 'doi', 'eprint', 'isbn' and 'issn' which can 
   take the values 'true' and 'false'. With these options 
   you can decide whether you want to have printed the 
   corresponding fields or not. The default for these 
   options is 'false' (as was the standard before). 
 - New option 'idemfont' which can take the values 
   'smallcaps', 'italic', 'bold' and 'normal'. The default 
   is none which means that the 'idem' string is printed in 
   the font shape of 'namefont'. 
 - New option 'ibidemfont' which can take the values 
   'smallcaps', 'italic' and 'bold'. The default is none 
   which means that the 'ibidem' string is printed in normal 
   font shape.   
 - New macro 'jourvolstring' which introduces the volume of
   an article entry. The default is a space (as it was the
   case before), but you can adjust it to your needs, e.g.:
   \renewcommand*{\jourvolstring}{\addspace vol\adddot\space}
 - New macro 'journumstring' which introduces the number in
   article entries, if the option 'journumafteryear' is set
   to 'true'. The default for this macro is a comma, 
   followed by the bibstring 'number' and a non-breakable 
   space. You can redefine it to your needs, e.g.:
   \renewcommand*{\journumstring}{\addspace} 
 - If there is no volume in an article entry, but the month
   field is set, the date is separated from the journal 
   title by a comma and a space, not only a space.
 - Fixed some BUGS concerning the xref functionality. 
 - Reorganized some bibliography drivers.
 - Enhanced the documentation.

v1.2e [2008/12/19]
 - Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8b. Note that from 
   this version on biblatex 0.8b is required, so you have to
   update biblatex as well if you would like to use 
   biblatex-dw 1.2e!
   -> The new biblatex option 'usetranslator' is supported.
 - BUGFIX: The option 'firstfullname' introduced in version
   1.2d had a bug which is now fixed.
 - BUGFIX: The 'idem' functionality did not work with the 
   multicite commands. This is now fixed.
 - New option 'journumafteryear': If set to 'true', the 
   'number' in article entries is printed after the year and
   introduced by the bibstring 'number'. If set to 'false',
   the default behaviour is used, i.e. 'Journaltitle 
   volume.number (year)'. The default is 'true'.
   -> If 'journumafteryear' is set 'false', the separator
      between volume and number in @article entries is now
      configurable with the new command '\jourvolnumsep'. 
      The default is a dot (which is also the default in
      biblatex).
 - When the 'volume' is missing, the parenthesis around the
   year in @article entries is omitted.
 - The multicite command \cites is now also always printed 
   as footnote in 'footnote-dw'.
 - Some changes in the internal code.
 - Extended the documentation and examples.

v1.2d [2008/12/07]
 - BUGFIX: In footnote-dw, the punctuation after the author/
   editor in all citations but the first one was always a 
   comma and not configurable by \citenamepunct. This is now 
   fixed.
 - New option 'firstfullname': when set to 'true', the 
   commands \citeauthor and \textcite (with footnote-dw: 
   \citeauthor only) give the full name of authors/editors 
   when they have not been cited before, not only the last 
   name. The default is 'false'.
 - Support for biblatex version 0.8a including 
   \MakeSentenceCase.
 - Added lbx files with alternative strings for German and 
   additional strings for both German and English (these 
   strings were already included, but are now stored in the 
   language mapping files).

v1.2c [2008/11/15]
 - New option 'idembibformat': When using 'idembib=true', 
   you can choose whether you want to have an 'idem' string 
   in the bibliography (idembibformat=idem) or a dash 
   (idembibformat=dash), as is the standard setting in 
   biblatex. The standard is 'idembibformat=idem'.
 - Option 'idembib' changed: Now 'false' means that 
   subsequent entries of the same author are given with full 
   names, not a dash (as was the behaviour up to now). The 
   standard is 'idembib=true'.
 - Improved xref support: The child entry does not only scan
   for the 'volume' field of the parent entry, but prints 
   also 'location' and 'year', if they differ from the 
   parent entry.
   
v1.2b [2008/11/09]
 - BUGFIX: With 'xref=true', the first (full) citation did 
   not show the overall pages of @INBOOK, @INCOLLECTION and 
   @INPROCEEDINGS entries. This is now fixed.
 - New option 'nolocation'. If set to 'true', the location 
   and the publisher are omitted (even if you set 
   'nopublisher=false'). The default is 'false', i.e. the 
   location is printed.
 - The option 'shorthandibid' can now also be used on a 
   per-entry basis.
 - Improved xref support: If the 'volume' field of a child 
   entry is set and the 'volume' field of the corresponding 
   parent entry is not set, the volume of the child entry 
   will be printed immediately before the pages.

v1.2a [2008/10/19]
 - Improved option 'edsuper' which also outputs non-integer 
   editions (though not as superscript, but rather similar 
   to a note.) 
 - The field 'origpublisher' (new in biblatex 0.8) is now
   also supported.
 - New option 'origfields' which can take the values 'true' 
   (standard) and 'false'. With this option, you can now 
   decide, whether you want to have the fields 
   'origlocation', 'origpublisher' and 'origyear' to be 
   printed or not.
   -> New option 'origfieldsformat=parens|brackets|punct'. 
      The default is 'punct' which means that the new 
      punctuation mark '\origfieldspunct' (default: 
      \addcomma\space) is used  to introduce the reprint 
      phrase. If you choose 'parens' or 'brackets', the 
      reprint phrase is put in parentheses or brackets, 
      respectively, and the \origfieldspunct is ignored.
 - New option 'shorthandwidth'. With this option you can set 
   the width of the label in the list of shorthands to any 
   length (e.g. '3em' or '40pt'). This is useful if you have 
   very long shorthands.
   -> New punctuation command '\shorthandpunct' which is 
      only exerted when you use the option 'shorthandwidth'. 
      Then it is set to a colon. You can redefine this 
      punctuation command with \renewcommand.
   -> New length '\shorthandsep' which is only exerted if 
      you use the option 'shorthandwidth'. The length 
      '\shorthandsep' defines the spacing after the label in 
      the list of shorthands. 
 - Improved package warnings.

v1.2 [2008/10/09]
 - Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8. Note that from 
   version 1.2 on, biblatex-dw needs at least biblatex 0.8, 
   so you have to update biblatex as well if you would like 
   to use biblatex-dw 1.2!
   -> The new biblatex option 'firstinits' is supported.
   -> The new macro \bibpagespunct is also supported.
 - Added option 'xref' which can be set to 'true' or 
   'false'. If you want to use the crossref functionality 
   (introduced in biblatex-dw version 1.1f), you now have to 
   set 'xref=true'. See the documentation for details.
 - As biblatex 0.8 has changed the handling of the field 
   'edition', the option 'edsuper' had to be adjusted. See 
   the documentation of biblatex-dw for details.
 - Updated the documentation.

v1.1h [2008/09/24]
 - BUGFIX: When using the options 'edbeforetitle' and 
   'edbyidem', the idem funcionality did not work. This is 
   now fixed.
 - Updated documentation (see especially, if you are using 
   the crossref functionality) and examples.
 
v1.1g [2008/09/05]
 - The biblatex package option 'mincrossrefs' is set to '1' 
   (instead of '2'). The reason is that otherwise entries 
   that are using the crossref functionality introduced in 
   biblatex-dw version 1.1f could be incomplete.
 - If both 'volumes' and 'volume' are present, 'volumes' is 
   now set before 'volume'.

v1.1f [2008/08/10]
 - BUGFIX: Corrected wrong punctuation when using 'idembib=
   false' in conjunction with an editor.
 - Added crossref functionality (using biblatex's field 
   'xref'). This works for authortitle-dw as well as 
   footnote-dw. For further information please have a look 
   into the package documentation.

v1.1e [2008/06/13]
 - BUGFIX: The option 'edbeforetitle' caused a problem
   when used together with the 'idem' functionality
   (which is the default). This is now fixed. 
 - Enhanced the 'idem' functionality: If a citation with 
   shorthand precedes a citation of the same author or 
   editor without shorthand, the string 'idem' is now 
   replaced by the author's or editor's name, since this
   information cannot be gathered from the shorthand 
   citation and thus could mislead the reader.

v1.1d [2008/06/05]
 - BUGFIX: The global option 'oldauthor' which was 
   introduced in version 1.1c caused an erroneous behaviour 
   when used together with 'idembib=true' (which is the 
   default). This is now fixed.
 - New option 'editorstring' which can take the values 
   'parens', 'brackets' and 'normal'; the default is 
   'parens'. This option sets the string 'editor' 
   (abbreviated 'ed.') in parentheses or in brackets, or 
   just puts the string (with a preceding comma) after the 
   editor name.
 - New option 'edbeforetitle' which can take the values 
   'true' and 'false'; the default is 'false'. When set to 
   'true', the editor in @INCOLLECTION and @INPROCEEDINGS 
   entries will be typeset before the booktitle ('... in: 
   Editor (ed.): Booktitle ...') rather than afterwards 
   ('... in: Booktitle, ed. by Editor ...').
 - Small correction in the terse version of the List of 
   Shorthands concerning the punctuation after authors/
   editors.
 - Added missing bibliography drivers for option 'edbyidem'.

v1.1c [2008/05/29]
 - BUGFIX: With the option 'idem=false', the author of a 
   first citation who was cited immediately before with 
   another work lacked the forename.
 - BUGFIX: The option 'edbyidem=false' produced a 
   superfluous 'ed. by' string.
 - BUGFIX: Small punctuation issue with repeated citations 
   and 'herename'. 
 - New option 'namefont' which can take the values 
   'smallcaps', 'italic' and 'bold'. The default is none, 
   i.e. authors and editors are set in normal font shape. 
   With 'useprefix=true', this option also affects the 
   name prefix.
 - New option 'firstnamefont' which can take the values 
   'smallcaps', 'italic' and 'bold'. This also affects the 
   name prefix (with 'useprefix=false') and the name 
   affix.
 - The option 'oldauthor' is now also available as global 
   option in order to disable the feature. If you set 
   'oldauthor=false' globally, every entry option 
   'oldauthor=true' is ignored. Thus, you can set the 
   fontname for every author with global options, 
   independent of entry options. 

v1.1b [2008/04/13]
 - BUGFIX: When using \parencite with 'footnote-dw',  
   additional parentheses (e.g. enclosing the string
   'editor') were lost; they are now replaced by brackets. 
 - BUGFIX: In 'footnote-dw', the normal \cite command 
   always produced a capital letter at the beginning. This
   is fixed now.
 - Fixed a small punctuation error in connection with 
   'herename'.
 - New command \titleaddonpunct for the punctuation before 
   titleaddon, booktitleaddon and maintitleaddon. The 
   default is a period now (not a comma, as before).
 
v1.1a [2008/02/09]
 - BUGFIX: When using the commands 'mancite' or 
   'citereset', the 'idem' functionality was not reset. 
   This is now fixed.
 - New option 'edsuper'. If set to 'true', the edition is 
   printed as superscript number (not as ordinal number) 
   straight ahead of the year. The default is 'false'.
 - New option 'firstfull' (only in 'authortitle-dw'). If 
   set to 'true', the first citation is a fullcite. The 
   default is 'false'.
 - Option 'citedas' is now also available for 
   'authortitle-dw' and used when 'firstfull' is set to 
   'true'.
   
v1.1 [2008/02/01]
 - BUGFIX: The 'citedas' functionality did not work if the 
   first citation of an entry was introduced by 'idem'.
 - New option 'terselos' introduced for a terse version of 
   the list of shorthands (default is 'true').
 - New option 'herename' introduced to specify if the term 
   \enquote{here} should prelude the pages of a fullcite 
   (or, with 'footnote-dw', also the first citation of an 
   entry) which has a non-empty \texttt{pages}-field.
 - New option 'nopublisher' introduced to suppress the 
   publisher. The default value is 'true', but if you want 
   to have the publisher printed, you now can set the 
   option 'nopublisher=false'.
 - If the field 'origlocation' is given, it will be set 
   together with 'origyear', whereas 'location' and 'year'
   are appended in parentheses, preluded by the bibstring 
   'reprint'.
 - The options 'annotation' and 'library' are now also 
   usable with the style 'footnote-dw'. The annotations 
   and library information are only printed in the 
   bibliography (if there is one), not in the citations or 
   in the list of shorthands.
 - Updated documentation.  

v1.01 [2008/01/20]  
 - BUGFIX: The 'pagetracker' functionality did not work 
   properly with the style 'footnote-dw'
 - Excluded ISBN/ISSN and DOI also from entry types 
   booklet, inproceedings, manual, misc, periodical, 
   proceedings, and report
 - Punctuation corrections for the same entry types 
   concerning the series+number  

v1.0 [2008/01/14]
 - Initial release
