% An attempt to mimic {\em Transactions of the ASAE}.
% Although I've used bits and pieces of other people's work,
% this style is hereby placed in the public domain.
% NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND.
% Please let me know of any improvements that you make.
%
% In creating this style, I utilized the existing public domain stuff:
%      article.sty art10.sty openbib.sty drop.sty twocolumn.sty
% This style (asaetr.sty) is for use with the accompanying BiBTeX
% style asaetr.bst.  The file 'asaetr.tex' documents its usage.

%Modification History:
% 22 Dec 1990 - version 0.9 released
% 12 Feb 1992 - revised section headings to confirm to article.sty,
%               added slanted, small caps font for level four headings,
%               re-wrote documentation (asaetr.tex),
%               fixed a bug in \keywords macro,
%               added asaesub.sty (style for transforming document into
%               one suitable for paper submission to ASAE),
%               version 1.0 released
% 03 Sep 1997 - Added missing %'s to above comment to fix
%               missing \begin{document} error.  No changes to the style.
% 08 Jun 1999 - Comment out "\def\@cite#1#2{}" which was causing empty
%               bibliography and LaTeX error.  Something else may have
%               been intended by the original author, but at least
%               a LaTeX error is now avoided.
