Dear Peter,

Excellent!  I'm grateful (being a simple historian, and not yet a
TeXpert).  Just one query: will this work for a page range that's not
really a range?  For example, a very long article spread out over
several issues of a journal, all of whose pages must be given in the
first citation.  I frequently cite one that has:

14--36, 143--70, 264--89

Forgive my TeX illiteracy:  would your macro simply test for the first
range?  If so, what about the possible scenario of citing several
single pages (e.g. diagrams in article)?  For example, suppose I
wanted "pp. 3, 17, 28".

I'm all ears, because this would be a great simplification.

Thanks,

Jesse
