Hello All,

This is the current point I am at:
I can use the bibliography styles & files found in the 
texmf/bibtex/bib/base and texmf/bibtex/bst/base directories, but not 
any others.

What do I need to do to be able to add .bib files and .bst files to 
TeXmacs? Where do these files need to be placed, or how do I tell 
TeXmacs to look somewhere other than the /base directories?

I think this solves Peter Pan's issue as well, because it seems that 
his problem is also just not being able to use the right .bst file.
