Some days ago (not many, in fact) I asked this question to the list, but I 
haven't got any answer. I wonder if it's because:

a) anybody it's interested in this kind of citations 
b) the answer is trivial
c) nobody has a clue about how to use this BibTex style
d) somebody knows it but haven't got time to answer

I'd like to think that was d)  ;-)

I do need to solve this problem because I work with two different groups. In 
one of the groups everybody uses Microsoft Word as only word processor. In 
the other group, they are LaTeX hard users. I want to show to both groups 
that using TeXmacs one can be more productive that using MS Word or 
LaTeX+Vim. But, my point is difficult to prove if, for example, I can't put 
references correctly in a paper.

If any work might be done to solve this problem, I could pay a (ludricously 
low --because it's *my* money, not money from my university--) amount of 
money to somebody. Interested? Please send me a message.

Probably, it would be better (at least, much easier) to move to 
OpenOffice.org 
as main word processor or start using Lyx or Kile instead TeXmacs.

Anyway, thank you for your time.

Javier
