# tex2refer - converts bibtex entries to refer entries
#
# !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# This software comes on a 'as is'-basis.
# No guarantee for the correctness is given and no 'service' is provided 
# !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#
# This program (an awk skript) converts bibliographic references from the
# bibtex-format to the refer-format.
# it reads from stdin and writes to stdout:
#
# usage: tex2refer < file.bib > file.refer
#
# Be aware, that some information is neccessarily lost, because 
#
#   * several bibtex field names are mapped to the same refer filed name
#      e.g. publisher, organization and school are all mapped to %I
#   * refer doesn't support types for references (like @inproceedings, @article)
#     (therefore the inverse mapping refer2tex is mostly based on heuristics)
#
# In this program are only the more important (I.M.H.O.) field names covered.
# If tex2refer encounters unknown field names, it will ignore them but store their
# names in a list, which is displayed after the conversion process.
#
# With this list the program can easily be extended by adding entries to the 
# associative array 'refer'
#
#
# Thanks to Lee, who provided the main part of the program and added
# some useful comments for readability
