If you have any interest at all in production of culture read the blog post and listen to the long form podcast (the ATC version linked from the blog post is the short version). I absolutely loved the NPR Planet Money story on the making of Rihanna’s “Man Down.” (Not so fond of the song itself, which reminds me of Bing Crosby and David Bowie singing “Little Drummer Boy” in matching cardigans).Also, as with Snow Leopard many of the features won’t really do anything until developers implement them in their applications. It sounds good but I’m once again sitting it out for a few months until the compatibility bugs get worked out. TextMate is supposed to run OK with some minor bugs. (Stata and Lyx are supposed to work fine. The user interface stuff doesn’t interest me nearly as much as the tight integration of version control and “ resume.” Also, worth checking if your apps are compatible. As far as the overall style, I usually just go with the basic “article” document class unless the journal provides a cls file (which most of them don’t in sociology, although Sociological Science will do so for accepted manuscripts).
That will get your document to have ASA style cites.
#LYX SPELL CHECK INSTALL#
It’s not a standard part of the TeX install so save it locally then navigate to it from inside the Lyx bibliography dialog. When you create the bibliography make sure you use the asr.bst file. Unfortunately this defaults to “X leads to Y (Author, 2013)” instead of “X leads to Y (Author 2013).” After years of just living with the superfluous comma, I finally realized there’s an easy fix, just paste this into the “LaTeX Preamble” tab of Document Settings. Under “Document/Settings” menu select the “Bibliography” tab and choose “Natbib” and style of “Author-year.” Here’s how you get the citations to meet ASA style.
#LYX SPELL CHECK SOFTWARE#
In particular, the people who wrote this software seemed to have no idea of ASA style. LaTeX makes beautiful output and Lyx makes it relatively easy to do so by obviating the need to learn a markup language, but woah be it unto him who needs the document to look a particular way that goes against the defaults.
