.TH TIB 5 " 7-Jun-1990"
.SH NAME
tib - format of tib bibliography (.ref) files
.SH SYNOPSIS
The tib bibliographic database is automatically used by 
.B tib(1),
after an INDEX file has been created with
.B tibdex(1)\fR.
The extension
.B .ref
is conventional (but not automatically supplied by Tib).

.SH DESCRIPTION

A reference
.I file
is a database file containing any
number of reference 
.I items,
separated by one or more blank lines.
Reference items consist of reference 
.I fields
which in turn
consist of data organized into field 
.I tags
and field 
.I data.
The meaning of field tags is an extension of that of 
.B bib
and is
suggested by that of 
.B refer(1).
However there are enough differences
that 
.B bib
or 
.B refer
reference files are not directly
usable with 
.B tib.
A field tag is a percent sign `\fB%\fR' in column 1
followed in column 2 by a single character.  The currently recognized
tags are listed below.  Field data begins in column 4; the data
can consist of any printable characters.  Field data can be as long as
necessary and can extend into the next line.  Lines that do not begin
with a percent sign are treated as continuation lines.  Every line
(including continuation lines) must begin in column 1.  The 
.B A, E, a, e
and 
.B \e
fields can be repeated as often
as necessary; other fields can occur at most once (more precisely the
last occurance of a field is the one used).  Fields can occur in any
order except that authors, editors, etc. are listed in order of
appearance.  Lines beginning `\fB%\e\fR' are inserted verbatim
into the output; they are assumed to be TeX instructions.  Lines in
a reference item beginning `\fB%%\fR' are comments.
