LOOKBIB(1) General Commands Manual LOOKBIB(1) NAME lookbib - search bibliographic databases SYNOPSIS lookbib [ -v ] [ -istring ] [ -tn ] filename... It is possible to have whitespace between a command line option and its parameter. DESCRIPTION lookbib prints a prompt on the standard error (unless the standard in- put is not a terminal), reads from the standard input a line containing a set of keywords, searches the bibliographic databases filename... for references containing those keywords, prints any references found on the standard output, and repeats this process until the end of in- put. For each database filename to be searched, if an index filename.i created by indxbib(1) exists, then it will be searched instead; each index can cover multiple databases. OPTIONS -v Print the version number. -istring When searching files for which no index exists, ignore the con- tents of fields whose names are in string. -tn Only require the first n characters of keys to be given. Ini- tially n is 6. FILES filename.i Index files. SEE ALSO refer(1), lkbib(1), indxbib(1) Groff Version 1.18.1 27 June 2001 LOOKBIB(1)
