+%
+% \maketitle
+%
+% \section{Introduction}
+%
+% With \textsf{biblatex} it's possible to use any element of a
+% bibliographic item in a document. With packages such as
+% \textsf{natbib} or simply with the native \BibTeX{} support one
+% can't refer directly to the title of a cited article or book without
+% directly typing it in.
+%
+% This package allows this by reading in a special environment a
+% |.bib| file. It should be considered no more than a devious usage of
+% a |.bib| file, to be honest. But it works.
+%
+% \section{Usage}
+%
+% The package \emph{must} be loaded after \textsf{hyperref}, but it
+% doesn't require it. It depends only on \textsf{url} and
+% \textsf{keyval}, which should be present on every \TeX{}
+% distribution.
+%
+% \subsection{Preamble commands}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\bibinput}
+% The main command is |\bibinput|, which accepts the name of a |.bib|
+% file (\emph{without} the extension) and may be repeated any number
+% of times to read all the necessary files.\footnote{Making it
+% dependent on the \texttt{\string\bibliography} command would be too
+% difficult.} The command should appear only in the preamble.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\newbibfield}
+% With the macro |\newbibfield|, to be issued \emph{before}
+% |\bibinput|, it's possible to declare new known fields, for example
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% \newbibfield{annotation}
+%\end{verbatim}
+% and say in the document |\usebibdata{xyz}{annotation}|. It's also
+% possible to say |\newbibfield{author}|, but as author names are
+% input in a very peculiar way, the result would be at least
+% questionable in the vast majority of cases. This command should
+% appear before |\bibinput|.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\newbibignore}
+% The entry types |@preamble| and |@string| are ignored by default. If
+% some other type should also, it's possible to say
+% \begin{flushleft}
+% |\newbibignore{|\meta{type}|}|
+% \end{flushleft}
+% so that, for example, |\newbibignore{misc}| will ignore all |@misc|
+% entry types. This command should appear before |\bibinput|.
+%
+% \subsection{Document commands}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\usebibdata}
+% The main document command is |\usebibdata| which requires two
+% arguments, the bibliography key and the field name:
+% \begin{flushleft}
+% |\usebibdata{|\meta{key}|}{|\meta{field}|}|
+% \end{flushleft}
+% The \meta{key} is what's used in the argument to |\cite| (or
+% variations thereof) and \meta{field} can be |title|, |year|, |note|
+% or |isbn|, but it's possible to augment the list of known
+% fields. So, in order to get in the document the referenced item's
+% title one can say
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% In the book ``\usebibdata{newton1687}{title}''~\cite{newton1687},
+% published in~\usebibdata{newton1687}{year}, Newton
+% describes the Law of Universal Gravitation
+%\end{verbatim}
+% to get the text
+% \begin{quote}
+% In the book ``Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica''~[3],
+% published in 1687, Newton describes the Law of Universal Gravitation
+% \end{quote}
+% assuming that in the |.bib| file that has been read with |\bibinput|
+% there's an entry such as
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% @book{newton1687,
+% author={Newton, Isaac},
+% title={Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica},
+% publisher={Royal Society},
+% address={London},
+% year={1687},
+% url={http://royalsociety.org},
+% }
+%\end{verbatim}
+% Unknown keys and missing values trigger errors: so
+% |\usebibdata{newton1687}{isbn}| would result in the error
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% Undefined key `newton1687' or empty value for `isbn'
+%\end{verbatim}
+% Unsupported fields will be ignored and print nothing.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\usebibdataurl}
+% If the |.bib| entry has a |url| field, its value can be obtained
+% with
+% \begin{flushleft}
+% |\usebibdataurl{|\meta{key}|}|
+% \end{flushleft}
+% \begin{trivlist}\footnotesize\item
+% When \textsf{hyperref} is not loaded, this is equivalent to calling
+% \verb+\url|+\meta{url}\verb+|+. In case the URL contains the
+% character \verb+|+, this call will produce wrong results and
+% one can specify a different delimiter
+% \begin{flushleft}
+% |\usebibdata[!]{|\meta{key}|}|
+% \end{flushleft}
+% where, of course, the optional argument is a character not appearing
+% in the URL. This optional argument is not needed when
+% \textsf{hyperref} is loaded and, if present, it's ignored.
+% \end{trivlist}
+%
+% \section{Limitations}
+%
+% The field delimiters in the |.bib| files \emph{must} be braces, as
+% must also the entry delimiters. \BibTeX{} allows double quotes in
+% for delimiting fields and parentheses for the entry. So, while
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% @book(newton1687,
+% author="Newton, Isaac",
+% title="Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica",
+% publisher="Royal Society",
+% address="London",
+% year=1687,
+% url="http://royalsociety.org",
+% )
+%\end{verbatim}
+% would be accepted by \BibTeX{}, it won't be by
+% \textsf{usebib}. Supporting this is out of question, since we parse
+% entries as a key-value list. Strictly speaking, double quotes won't
+% give errors, as long as no comma is in the fields, but will be part
+% of the replacement text anyways. Numeric field values can, of
+% course, be input without field delimiters.
+%
+% Another limitation is in the fact that field names should always be
+% lowercase; supporting mixed case for these is beyond the limits of a
+% small package like this. Sorry.
+%
+% Note also that all the bibliographic data are loaded in memory, so
+% large |.bib| files could exceed \TeX{} capacity.
+%
+% Don't ever try typing |\usebibdata{foo}{url}|: you've been
+% warned. There's |\usebibdataurl{foo}| for this.
+%
+% Finally, the package requires $\varepsilon$-\TeX, which shouldn't be
+% a problem, nowadays.
+%
+% \StopEventually{}
+%
+% \section{Implementation}
+%
+% After the usual presentation, we check first of all that the
+% typesetting engine is sufficiently recent to include
+% $\varepsilon$-\TeX{} extensions.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\@ifundefined{eTeXversion}
+ {\PackageError{usebib}{LaTeX engine too old, aborting}
+ {Please upgrade your TeX system}\@@end}{}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% We start by loading the required packages.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\RequirePackage{url}
+\RequirePackage{keyval}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% When we read a |.bib| file the |@| character is made active. Its
+% action is to read what follows up to the next open brace, using it
+% as the value of the |currenttype| key. This is necessary for
+% ignoring the entry types |@preamble| and |@string| which would mess
+% up everything.
+%
+% Now we define the known fields as keys for \textsf{keyval} and the
+% two auxiliary keys. The |\define@reuse@key| macro is just syntactic
+% sugar.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\define@key{usebib}{currenttype}{\def\@tempa{#1}}
+\define@key{usebib}{currententry}{\def\reuse@current{#1}}
+\def\define@reuse@key#1{%
+ \define@key{usebib}{#1}{\global\@namedef{reuse@\reuse@current @#1}{##1}}}
+\define@reuse@key{title}
+\define@reuse@key{isbn}
+\define@reuse@key{url}
+\define@reuse@key{year}
+\define@reuse@key{note}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@find}
+% The first macro to be used when looking at an entry, later we'll
+% define the active |@| to be this macro: it takes as argument the
+% entry's type and does, for instance,
+% |\setkeys{usebib}{currenttype=BOOK}|, but inside a |\lowercase| so
+% that the type will be normalized. Then it checks whether
+% |\reuse@type@book| is defined, which it isn't, so |\reuse@extract|
+% will be expanded; since we later define |\reuse@type@preamble| and
+% |\reuse@type@string|, such entries will be ignored because of
+% |\@gobble|. The expansion of |\reuse@extract| is done in a group
+% where |@| has category code~12 and also the percent character,
+% because it can be in some URL (and has not a special meaning in
+% \BibTeX{} entries).
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\reuse@find#1#{%
+ \lowercase{\setkeys{usebib}{currenttype=#1}}%
+ \ifcsname reuse@type@\@tempa\endcsname
+ \expandafter\@gobble
+ \else
+ \begingroup\@makeother\%\makeatother
+ \expandafter\reuse@extract
+ \fi}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@extract}
+% The entire entry is the argument to |\reuse@extract|; since it has a
+% fixed form, we feed the citation key as the value of |currententry|
+% and then read all the fields as key-value pairs. The effect of
+% |currententry=xyz| is to define |\reuse@current| to |xyz|; so a
+% subsequent |year=2012| will do the equivalent of
+%\begin{verbatim}
+% \gdef\reuse@xyz@year{2012}
+%\end{verbatim}
+% and similarly for the other known fields. The group opened by
+% |\reuse@find| is then closed.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\reuse@extract#1{\setkeys{usebib}{currententry=#1}\endgroup}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@type@preamble}
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@type@preamble}
+% \begin{macro}{\newbibignore}
+% Here we define the two entry types to ignore and the user level
+% command to augment the list of ignored fields.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\let\reuse@type@preamble\@empty
+\let\reuse@type@string\@empty
+\def\newbibignore#1{\expandafter\let\csname reuse@type@#1\endcsname\@empty}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@error}
+% A macro for issuing an error message.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\reuse@error#1#2{%
+ \PackageError{usebib}
+ {Undefined key `#1' or empty value for `#2'}
+ {The key you used is wrong or the value to `#2' has not been set}}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% Next we define the other four user level macros.
+% \begin{macro}{\newbibfield}
+% |\newbibfield{type}| defines a new key.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\newbibfield[1]{\define@reuse@key{#1}}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\usebibentry}
+% \begin{macro}{\usebibentryurl}
+% \begin{macro}{\reuse@usebibentryurl}
+% Both |\usebibentry| and |\usebibentryurl| check whether the
+% corresponding inner macro is defined. The latter then expands a
+% special inner version that's defined in different ways depending
+% whether \textsf{hyperref} has been loaded or not. If it is, a simple
+% |\scantokens| hands the job to the |\url| macro, which is cleverly
+% defined for accepting special characters; otherwise we need to be
+% sure that the URL is properly delimited.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\def\usebibentry#1#2{\@ifundefined{reuse@#1@#2}
+ {\reuse@error{#1}{#2}}
+ {\@nameuse{reuse@#1@#2}}}
+\newcommand{\usebibentryurl}[2][|]{\@ifundefined{reuse@#2@url}
+ {\reuse@error{#2}{url}}
+ {\reuse@usebibentryurl{#1}{#2}}}
+\@ifpackageloaded{hyperref}{\@tempswatrue}{\@tempswafalse}
+\if@tempswa
+ \def\reuse@usebibentryurl#1#2{%
+ \scantokens{\url{\csname reuse@#2@url\endcsname}\endinput}}
+\else
+ \def\reuse@usebibentryurl#1#2{%
+ \toks@=\expandafter\expandafter\expandafter
+ {\csname reuse@#2@url\endcsname}%
+ \scantokens\expandafter{%
+ \expandafter\url\expandafter#1\the\toks@#1\endinput}}
+\fi
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\bibinput}
+% The macro that starts the reading of a |.bib| file. We start a group
+% where end-of-line characters are treated like spaces and where the
+% error messages of \textsf{keyval} and \textsf{xkeyval} about
+% undefined keys are disabled. Then we define the active |@| to be
+% |\reuse@find| and input the |.bib| file, closing the group at the
+% end.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand{\bibinput}[1]{%
+ \begingroup
+ \catcode`\^^M=10
+ \let\KV@err=\@gobble
+ \let\KV@errx=\@gobble
+ \let\XKV@err=\@gobble
+ \begingroup\lccode`\~=`\@
+ \lowercase{\endgroup\let~}\reuse@find
