7. Selecting an Attribution

As you know, the attribution string is the part of the author's name that will be used to composed a non-nested citation string. Supercite scans the various mail headers present in the original article and uses a number of heuristics to extract strings which it puts into the attribution association list or attribution alist. This is analogous, but different than, the info alist previously mentioned. Each element in the attribution alist is a key-value pair containing such information as the author's first name, middle names, and last name, the author's initials, and the author's email terminus.
