I believe there are other similar ones around. Essentially all they do is give you a proforma for the various bibtex entry types, and provide a facility to fill them in interactively. It has the added facility of inserting a blank entry for a manditory field if a null reply is entered in response to the prompt, but leaving that field out if the field is not required. -- -- Kevin Sharp, UUCP : {WALES}!ukc!aber-cs!kas AI and Robotics Research Group, JANET: kas@uk.ac.aber.cs Department of Computer Science, PHONE: +44 970 622450 University College of Wales, Aberystwyth, Dyfed, UK.
