generates a bibliography document to double-check references




program availability  
 
gentex.com usage  
 

It is frequently useful to be able to quickly generate a Tex document that allows the user to double check all of the Tex formatting in a bibliography file. This script generates it with a bibliography style that creates a useful key for using the bibtex file.

The script is run by specifying the bibtex file and optionally specifying a tex prefix. (If no prefix is specified then temp is used).

gentex.com file.bib 

or

gentex file.bib file

In the first case, the script will generate a file temp.ps to be viewed or printed. In the second case, the file will be file.ps.





a final word  
 

As always, I've only extensively tested this program against many of the things that I do regularly so there are potentially a number of bugs creeping about. I've written the program to be very robust so that it should survive even fairly pathological cases, but I've only checked a finite number of these. If you run into any problems, feel free to e-mail me and depending on the problem (and my schedule) I might crack open the code and fix them.
