This is to all the biblatex gurus.
I have only just come from Bibtex to Biblatex and I think I am lost in the many options available. Here is my scenario: I have a document, thesis which I intend to have two bibliographies with different styles..eventually. although for now I just want to get things working. With the working example below, I have the two bibliographies as I want but some things are not clear easy to solve: 1) The intext (textcite) outputs : LastName, Initials et.al but I would like LastName et.al. 2) The bibliography style outputs: FirsAuthorLastName, FirstAuthorInitials, SecondAuthorLastName, SecondAuthorInitials, etc but as you can see there is a comma separating both first and lastname as well as between authors. Now that doesn't look too nice I think. Perhaps a different marker like a semi column. Second, I want to list only the first few (5) authors and no more in the bibbliography style 3) Items in the second bibliography are also included in the first ? This is not too bad but 4) The numbering continues in the second bibliography instead of restaring back at 1 5) Finally, is I need to have the second bibliography in a different style, say author-year, sorted by year of publication what do I do ?
Now this is asking too much but if others have solved these issues I will be glad to know.
Thank you.
