BibTeX2HTML is a collection of tools for producing automatically HTML documents from bibliographies written in the BibTeX format. It consists in three command line tools:

  • bib2bib is a filter tool that reads one or several bibliography files, filters the entries with respect to a given criterion, and outputs the list of selected keys together with a new bibliography file containing only the selected entries;

  • bibtex2html is a translator that reads a bibliography file and outputs two HTML documents that respectively the cited bibliography in a nice presentation, and the original BibTeX file augmented with several transparent HTML links to allow easy navigation.

  • aux2bib reads a .aux file as produced by LaTeX and writes to standard output a BibTeX file containing exactly the BibTeX entries refereed in the .aux file.

    If you want to build the documentation, do "make doc" (You need both LaTeX and Hevea).

    To install the doc, do "make install-doc".
