#!/usr/bin/perl

# auxtobib takes the name of a main .aux file (as generated by LaTeX)
# as argument.  It extracts all the citations contained in the aux
# file, recursively descending into included aux files (as generated
# by the LaTeX \include directive), and uses this list to extract a
# BibTeX file containing only the cited references, including the
# needed string abbreviations and crossreferences. The names of the
# BibTeX files are taken from the main aux file, and are searched in 
# exactly the same way as done by bibtex.
#
# Needs bib2bib (see http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html)
# and kpsewhich (comes with the kpathsea library).
