I'm using Scribble and Frog to automatically generate a publications list from a BibTex file. The problem is, right now I get the same order regardless of what order I call ~cite: sorted by year, oldest to newest. I'd like the reverse of this, with newest at the top. Is it possible to change the order of the generated bibliography, to either match the order I call ~cite in, or to automatically sort by date (in reverse?)

Thanks!

You can supply `#:sort? #f` as an argument to a `~cite` to use the
order that you supply. There's not currently a way to change the
automatic sort order.

Looks like that changes the order the citations are listed at the point of citation, but not in the generated bibliography at the end of the document? Unless I'm missing something obvious.
Either way, thanks!

Ah, I misunderstood. I think there's not currently an option to adjust
the sorting of the bibliography section, but it would make sense to add
one.
