SUMMARY

Hi all,

I have to change the bibliography style in an "article"-type tex document from

[1] Author1, Author2, etc...
[2] Author3, Author4, etc.
...

to

1. Author1, Author2, etc.
2. Author3, Author4, etc.
...

and I want to create my own .bst file using "latex makebst" command. The problem is that I do not find any option there in order to change the numbering style from [1] to 1.

Can anyone help me to solve this?

Nevermind. Just figured out:

\makeatletter \renewcommand \@biblabel[1]{\bf{#1}.} \makeatother
