        If you're using mom, the edition field is %e.  Per MLA style, the
        word "edition" is abbreviated and appended to the field, so

          %e Second

        not

          %e Second edition

        or

          %e Second ed

yes, sure, I read you manual (well, bits of it).
And, by the way, your documentation is very good.

What if I'm not using mom. What is the best
way to have edition with refer and, say, ms
macros?

Thanks
