bibliography(): print accent characters

[zkamvar]

Hi, I've run into a slight hiccup with citations that I put into a bibtex file where there are accents over the Authors' names.

This returns This:

Fran{\c{c}}ois Balloux, Laurent Lehmann, Thierry Mee{^u}s, (2003) The population genetics of clonal and partially clonal diploids. Genetics 164 (4) 1635-1644

Is there a flag that I can use to properly parse these entries?

Thanks for the bug report, I'll look into how to avoid this automatically. Meanwhile, try: bibliography(style="text"), which should give you the utf-8 accent characters instead of the bibtex ascii notation for accents.

Oh, frag, I didn't realize the input link wasn't static, sorry about that. Here's the contents of the bibtex file:

@article{balloux2003population,
  title={The population genetics of clonal and partially clonal diploids},
  author={Balloux, Fran{\c{c}}ois and Lehmann, Laurent and de Mee{\^u}s, Thierry},
  journal={Genetics},
  volume={164},
  number={4},
  pages={1635--1644},
  year={2003},
  publisher={Genetics Soc America}
}

No problem. This should work with the text option I mentioned. If not, you may have an old version of knitcitations the bibtex package? Paste the output of sessionInfo() after running your example.

It does seem to work with simply bibliography(style = "text"), however this does not work:

bibliography(.bibstyle = "pnas", style = "text")
Error: attempt to apply non-function

But the version without the style argument works. Below is my sessionInfo()

Thanks for the quick reply!

I am afraid "pnas" is not a valid option for bibstyle. Knitcitations doesn't support journal styles at this time.
