Greetings and salutations. Does anyone know of a program for sorting the ORIGINAL BIBTEX BIBLIOGRAPHY files into some sort of order (alphabetically by author, for example)? Someone here would like to sort a 60+ BIBTEX bibliography so that he can keep track of the citation references. He is using BibDB 1.0a, and can see for example, all authors with surname Smith, but the citation keys do not get sorted. So, is there a method of LOGICALLY sorting the BIBTEX bibliography (.BIB file) into alphabetical order (on citation key/author/ year etc.)? Thanks for the help. Since I originally posted to the emtex-user mailing list and got a lot of "Hey, let me know what you find out"s, I'll summarise if someone e-mails me.
