7.2 Basic BibTeX style files
============================

Here are descriptions of the four standard and four semi-standard basic
BibTeX styles.  `CTAN:/biblio/bibtex' contains these and many more (for
CTAN info, Note: unixtex.ftp.ftp.).

`plain'
     Sorts entries alphabetically, with numeric labels.  Generally
     formatted according to van Leunen's `A Handbook for Scholars'.
     The other style files listed here are based on `plain'.

`abbrv'
     First names, month names, and journal names are abbreviated.

`acm'
     Names are printed in small caps.

`alpha'
     Alphanumeric labels, e.g., `Knu66'.

`apalike'
     No labels at all; instead, the year appears in parentheses after
     the author.  Use this in conjunction with `apalike.tex' (plain
     TeX) or `apalike.sty' (LaTeX), which also changes the citations in
     the text to be `(AUTHOR, YEAR)'.

`ieeetr'
     Numeric labels, entries in citation order, IEEE abbreviations,
     article titles in quotes.

`siam'
     Numeric labels, alphabetic order, `Math. Reviews' abbreviations,
     names in small caps.

`unsrt'
     Lists entries in citation order, i.e., unsorted.

`btxbst.doc'
     The template file and documentation for the standard styles.
