% BibTeX `mlapa' bibliography style (20-Jan-2000 version)
% Adapted from the `theapa' style; for BibTeX version 0.99a.
% Copyright (C) 1988, all rights reserved.
% Copying of this file is allowed, provided that if you make any changes 
% at all you name it something other than `mlapa.bst'.
% This restriction helps ensure that all copies are identical.
% Differences between this style and `alpha' are generally heralded by a `%'.
% The file btxbst.doc has the documentation for alpha.bst.
%
% This style should be used with the `mlapa' LaTeX style (mlapa.sty).
% \cite's come out as "(Jones, 1986)" in the text but there are no labels
% in the bibliography, and something like "(1986)" comes out immediately
% after the author. Author (and editor) names appear as last name, comma,
% initials.  A `year' field is required for every entry, and so is either
% an author (or in some cases, an editor) field or a key field.
%
% History:
%   15-sep-86	(SK,OP)	Original version, by Susan King and Oren Patashnik.
%   10-nov-86	(OP)	Truncated the sort.key$ string to the correct length
%			in bib.sort.order to eliminate error message.
%   24-jan-88	(OP)	Updated for BibTeX version 0.99a, from alpha.bst 0.99a;
%			apalike now sorts by author, then year, then title;
%			THIS `apalike' VERSION DOES NOT WORK WITH BIBTEX 0.98i.
%   1/25/91     risto   fixed the bug in (in)proceedings address field.
%			New York: Wiley.
%   1/20/2000   langley revised definitions to approximate APA format more
%                       closely, including proper treatment of pages numbers
%                       for proceedings, cases for books, and uses of "and"
%                       versus "&" in the text.
