It does change every instance (except the first) of \n%A in the scalar
into a semicolon, given a scalar containing, e.g.,

%Z       1
%X A
%A aauth1
%A aauth2
%A aauth3
%A aauth4
%A aauth5
%T atitle1
%T atitle2
%J ajounral
%D adate
%V avolume
%P apages
%K akeys1
%K akeys2
%O aother1
%O aother2

My concern is with how it works...not understanding how, I'm expecting
surprises when I attempt to use the same tactic in other contexts.

Would anybody explain the mechanism to me?  The mechanism of "while" isn't
ordinarily mysterious, but is here mysterious in conjunction with the
constant:  "1 while".

thanks, 
Eric Lawson
