ok...i did a search here and read the other texmaker forums. some helped but did not completely
solve the problem.
I installed
mactex 2008 and
i installed the current version of texmaker.
i wrote my thesis without doing the formal "cite" thing...instead i just put notes to myself about
what to cite. now i am going through and doing just that. in texmaker i run the latex command. and
i get a message that says process exited normally. then i run bibtex and i only get "error: could
not start the command". then i run quick build and it appears that something kinda worked.
in my paper there are citations but not how i wanted. below is my bib_refs.bib file, i want my
cites in the form of the first 3 letters of the authors last name and then the year. for example
when i cite the book Krane i would like for it to be [Kra88] in text. this is how my advisor wants
it. instead what i am getting is [Krane, 1988].
also i have different cites for the same source...ie Krane is a large and diverse book so when i
use chapter 5 my advisor wants it to be like [Kra88a] and then for the next cite it is is [Kra88b]
and [Kra88c] and so forth.
so i guess i am having two problems...first texmaker/bibtex is not running smoothely or something
and second is the form of my bib_refs.bib file. (though i think it is right, just a template form
the graduate school website)
