Does anyone use "Refer" or "BibIX" which are supposedly compatable with
EndNote?  We have a Unix system (AT&T 3B2-600 running Unix 5-release3) for
the departments central computer and a mixed group of Macintosh 
and PC users that would like to access a common updatable article citation
database.  What we Mac users would like to do is download subsets of this
master file onto our Macs when we are writing articles and  use the
EndNote DA to incorporate the references.  The EndNote documentation says
it will import/export "Refer" and "BibIX" which are Unix products.  Does
anyone do this?  Has anyone tried to merge Medline/Medlars-format citations
from online searches into a Refer/BibIX database?  Are there MS-DOS front ends
to either of these Unix products?
