[comp.text] refer and so forth

pjm@calmasd.GE.COM (Pierre Malraison) (08/05/88)

Environment: A Pyramid with nroff,troff and mm macros

What I've got: I hate writing bibliographies for articles.
So with addbib I generated foo.ref a (%A,%D etc format) file
with all the articles I wnat to refer to in my article.

What I want: simple way to refer to the references in the text of what
i'm writing AND way to print references at end of article.
Roffbib comes close, but I can't figure out how to interrupt
it to get nroff INPUT i could use with .RF macros. I assume
this is a standard problem and can either be fixed with a macro and/or
a better understanding of refer.

All contributions gratefully accepted.

P.S. And oh by the way how do YOU do indexes?

e-mail responses OK
if net requests, I'll post responses

thanks
