Bibcut is a free Linux program, which helps to arrange and
modify BibTeX libraries in several ways:
- Referencing BibTeX files to LaTeX files
- Cleaning authors strings
- Comparing BibTeX files
- Removing strange characters in BibTeX files
- Translating BibTeX files into plain text and LaTeX (\bibitem based) files
- Modifying tags of BibTeX entries
- Changing the names of journals (full and abbreviated names)
- Etc. ...
To
make life easier, Bibcut comes with a graphical user interface. In
first place, Bibcut is interesting for scientists, who publish
regularly in scientific journals and who use LaTeX and BibTeX as a text
processing system. The Bibcut functions are explained on the Wiki page with help of some examples.
Note that there are older versions also for Microsoft Windows. Bibcut works in any case under MS Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. There should be no problems with newer versions of Windows. However, no guarantee !
