% \section{Introduction}
% This file is to be used as a language definition file with master
% bibliographic files. The language it defines is
% \begin{quote}\bfseries Italian\end{quote}
% 
% This is not a self-sufficient \texttt{.mbs} file, but rather may
% be used together with one that contains language support via
% external definition files.
% 
% See the documentation for \texttt{makebst} for formatting details.
% 
% \section{The Menu Information}
% 
% All the menu information is nested between \dtx{} guard options
% |%<*options>| \dots\ |%</options>|, and the last command is
% |\endoptions|. The rest of the file is nested between |%<*!options&!driver>|
% \dots\ |%</!options&!driver>| in order to exclude it if \dtx{} is used to
% extract only the menu information or the documentation driver.
