(drum roll) + + + + + +Tib is a preprocessor for TeX to insert citations and make bibliography lists. +For a demonstration: + + 1. Copy the file AAAAA/test.ref into a directory. + This is a database of references. + 2. Apply the program tibdex to this file. This makes an inverted + index (INDEX) to the reference file. + 3. Copy the TeX file AAAAA/test.tex into the directory. + This is a TeX file with keyword citations. + 4. Apply the program tib to this TeX file (the .tex extension + need not be part of the call). + 5. The output file is another TeX file with complete citations + and reference list. + 6. Apply TeX as usual to this file. + 7. For LaTeX, see the instructions in test.tex + +This call calls for default options. A large variety of formatting options +is available. Some of them are: other fonts (old English, boldface ...), +alphabetizing and other sorts, replacing successive listings of identical +author(s) by underlines, other citation styles (3 letter codes from authors' +names, authors' names and date, superscripts), reversing and/or abbreviating +authors' names, capsmallcaps for names, hyphenating strings of references +in citations, footnotes instead of endnotes, other listing formats. Any +combination of these (and others) can be packaged in a format file and called +with the -s (style) option. For demonstrations of some of these, repeat steps +4-6 with the following calls (for LaTeX, see the instructions in test.tex): + tib -s demo1 + tib -s demo2 + tib -s demo3 (demo3l for LaTeX) + tib -s demo4 + tib -s demo5 + tib -s demo6p (for plain TeX) + tib -s demo6l (for LaTeX) +Demo6 calls for footnotes; see the instructions in test.tex. Note that +occasionally, reformatting or additional editing is called for. Tib is +not meant to cover all possibilities. + +For complete documentation, there is a plain TeX source file +AAAAA/tibdoc.tex. Apply TeX as usual to this file. -- cgit v1.2.3
