Style Error: The Auk/The Condor
I have been having issues getting Auk/Condor to format correctly. I am trying to format a citation for software. The example in the instructions to authors (http://www.americanornithologypubs.org/page/instructions?code=coop-site) is as follows:
SAS Institute. 1990. SAS-STAT user’s guide. Version 6, 4th edition. SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA.
This is how it actually displays if I have it stored as Item Type: Computer Program:
R Core Team (2018). R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing. In. R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria.
Notice the "In." before the publisher, which in addition to not being correct, is just odd.
I wondered if maybe in SAS user guide example is not thought of as a 'Computer Program' and is maybe instead some kind of document or report. Here is how it displays as a 'Document':
R Core Team (2018). R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing. [Online.] Available at https://www.R-project.org/.
Note that it assumes it is web-based and there is no longer a publisher.
Here is how it displays as a Report:
R Core Team (2018). R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing. [Online.] Available at https://www.R-project.org/.
Again, web-based and no publisher.
In addition to citations for software, I have a number of actual reports and other documents I need to cite and I need Zotero to show the publisher/institution, but it doesn't show up if I use the Auk/Condor style

Let me put in a fix. Are both styles affected? Are those two styles the same actually?

Also, for references to books the style indicates there should be an 'In' before the edition number. But if there is no edition number it still puts the 'In' in the citation, so it ends up putting an 'In' in front of the publisher. Is there a way to leave the 'In' out if the edition field is blank?
