If there is one, I'm not aware of it. Please note that the formatting
mechanism has changed in version 1.3, which is still in beta. I
haven't ported all the existing styles yet (I'd like to implement some
sort of bst engine to tap the existing bibtex styles, but haven't
worked on this yet).

The formatting system in 1.3 makes it much more efficient to reuse
styles: if Harvard and APA4 are very close, they would benefit from
being described together. I don't have the styles at hand though. Let
me know if you are interested in this, and I can definitely work out
the details with you. A step by step howto will also be a nice
reference for future users.

Cheers,
