bibmradd - Man Page

add MR numbers to papers in a given bib file

Synopsis

bibmradd  [-d] [-f] [-e 1|0] [-o output] bib_file

Options

-d

Debug mode

-e

If 1 (default), add an empty mrnumber if a mr cannot be found.  This prevents repeated searches for the same entries if you add new entries to the file.  Calling -e 0 suppresses this behavior.

-f

Force searching for MR numbers even if the entry already has one.

-o output

Output file.  If this option is not used, the name for the  output file is formed by adding _mr to the input file

Description

The script reads a BibTeX file. It checks whether the entries have mrnumbers. If not, it tries to find the numbers from Internet sites. The result is a BibTeX file with mrnumber=... fields added.

The name of the output file is either set by the -o option or  is derived by adding the suffix _mr to the output file.

See the bibdoiadd script for more details on the processing.
