One of the things I wanted was a BIBTEX->Refer conversion utility (on the
Mac), and I was very happy when I actually *found* it on the above
ftp/gopher server (file is called Scribe2Refer). 

The only problem is, I'm running Sys 7.1, and this utility hangs when I
launch it. I imagine it's a problem with Allegro Common Lisp, the compiler
in which it was compiled, and Sys 7.1. Anyway, has anyone out there managed
to use this conversion utility on System 7?

If not, a newer version of the source code is out there in LISP, and it
would only take someone with the Macintosh Common Lisp compiler to make an
App out of it and put it back on the FTP server. 

Avi, would you be able to arrange this? I found the most recent source on
Apple's ftp machine with LISP source (forgot the name, but I have source
files).

Ultimately I'd like to get BIBTEX (.bib files in unix) into EndNote. Using
Refer as a middle format would seem to work fine if I could just get the
utility to work.

Thanks for all help.
