For example, +`a' matches both `author' and `address', and `au' matches +`author' only. If the <field> argument is `-' (or any +string with no letters or numbers), match any field. +.IP +If `not' appears before the <field>, the sense of the search +is reversed. The symbols `~' and `!' can be used in place +of `not'. +.IP +Each word is a contiguous sequence of letters and digits. +Case is ignored; accents should be omitted; apostrophes are +not required. Single characters and a few common words are +also ignored. Any word ending with an asterisk is treated +as a prefix. Thus, `point*' matches `point', `points', +`pointer', etc. +.PP +.TP +.BR "and [not] <field> <words>" +.TP +.BR "or [not] <field> <words>" +Intersect (resp. union) the results of the given search +with the previous search. Several of these commands may be +combined on a single line. Commands are handled in the order +in which they appear; there is no precedence. Unlike other +commands, and like `not', these must be spelled out +completely. `&' can be used in place of `and', and `|' can +be used in place of `or'. +.PP +.TP +.B "d[isplay]" +Display the results of the previous search. +.PP +.TP +.B "s[ave] [<filename>]" +Save the results of the previous results into the specified +file. If <filename> is omitted, the previous save file is +used. If no save file has ever been specified, results are +saved in the file specified on the command line. If no such +file is specified, `save.bib' is used. If the save file +exists, results are appended to it. +.PP +.TP +.B "q[uit]/EOF" +Quit. +.PP +Several commands can be combined on a single line by separating +them with semicolons. For example, the following command displays +all STOC papers cowritten by Erdo"s without `Voronoi diagrams' in +the title: +.PP +.nf +f b stoc* | b symp* theory comp* & au erdos & ~t voronoi diagrams ; d +.fi +.PP +.SH "SEE ALSO" +bibclean(1), bibindex(1), bibtex(1), latex(1), tex(1) +.SH AUTHOR +.nf +Jeff Erickson +Computer Science Division +University of California +Berkeley, CA 94720 +USA +Email: <jeff@cs.berkeley.edu>, <jeffe@melody.berkeley.edu> +.fi +.PP +This program is in the public domain.
