Given a set of *.bib files, how can I print out all the citations contained therein? (I think someone posted an answer a few months back, but I missed it.) Note: one not-so-elegant way would be for me to write a program (in C or awk etc.) that extracted all the keys and put them in a latex file as \cite{key1,key2....}. Then I could just use bibtex. However, I'm interested in a latex solution.

The following LaTeX file should print out all the references in a 'bib.bib' file. ---------------------------------------------------------------- \documentstyle{article} \begin{document} \nocite{*} % takes all references !!! \bibliography{bib} \bibliographystyle{alpha} \end{document} ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Scheucher Anton, Dipl.

Hi! Here's a (simple?) question for bibtex style-file hackers... I was trying to develop a ".bst" style that would print out as label the citation key as used in the ".bib" file. e.g. @ARTICLE{foobar, ... ... } would produce the command \bibitem[foobar]{foobar} ... in the ".bbl" file. Seemed fairly easy. The original alpha style had the function: FUNCTION {output.bibitem} { newline$ "\bibitem[" write$ label write$ "]{" write$ cite$ write$ "}" write$ newline$ "" before.all 'output.state := } All I did was change the line "label write$" to "cite$ write$", getting: FUNCTION {output.bibitem} { newline$ "\bibitem[" write$ cite$ write$ "]{" write$ cite$ write$ "}" write$ newline$ "" before.all 'output.state := } It worked fine, except for labels that had underscores. These caused latex to choke... e.g. @ARTICLE{foo_bar, ....} would produce \bibitem[foo_bar]{foo_bar}, which upsets latex. I can fix the ".bbl" file by hand to prefix all underscores by a backslash. This pleases latex. However, I'd like to automate this process. Any ideas on how to write a function in bibtex (".bst") to convert the underscores to "backslash-underscore"... (note: purify$ doesn't work since it *removes* the underscore) (Note: I'd heard that there was a keys.bst somewhere, but I can't locate it.... Anyone know?)
