My question is: does bibtex support the macro checking such as that in latex "\ifx ... \else ..."? I will use an example to explain the reason I asked this question: when submitting paper for conference paper, we tend to use "name> and others" for author field, and for journal version, we want full author name list. Then could we define a macro "CONF_MODE", and then specify author field by checking whether this macro is defined or not? e.g., \ifx CONF_MODE \defined author = "San Zhang and others" \else author = {Zhang, San and Li, Si and Wang, Wu and Zhao, Liu}, \fi If there is no such mechanism in bibtex, how should we handle this problem? Thanks!
