I asked for tools like these a while back and have received them from a
person in Germany who has given me the right to distribute them freely (and
for free!). Rather than replying to lots of individual trans-pacific
requests, would some TeX Archive sites be able to respond and I can send
them once to the archives? People can then collect them locally. The tools 
I have allow easy entry of items into BibTeX databases, sorting of BibTeX
databases and extraction of entries with a given keyword.

For individuals wanting the tools, please wait a week or so (i.e. early
June). If I get some response from archive sites, I shall post their 
addresses here. If not, I will then (if it is the only option) send out 
individual copies. Sending individual copies is time consuming, and slow, 
and sending multiple copies of 30k of source across the pacfic does not
seem too sensible.
