This is a plea to bibliography-style designers (.bst programmers):
Please follow the advice, about how to handle string variables, given
at the beginning of Section 5.3 of "Designing BibTeX Styles".  The
standard styles, along with apalike.bst, for example, show how you
might do it with the sort.key$ variable.  The writer of chicago.bst
should contact me by e-mail to solve any remaining problems.
