  30 ;; Functions to look up references in bibliography files given lists of
  31 ;; keywords, similar to refer(1).  I don't use tags since tags on .bib files
  32 ;; only picks up the cite key, where as refer-find-entry looks for occurrences
  33 ;; of keywords anywhere in the bibliography entry.
  34 ;;
  35 ;; To use:
  36 ;;      (autoload 'refer-find-entry "refer" nil t)
  37 ;; or   (require 'refer)
  38 ;;
  39 ;;      To look for an article by Knuth about semaphores:
  40 ;;          Invoke refer-find-entry, then in response to the Keywords: prompt,
  41 ;;          say: Knuth semaphores (a blank-separated list of keywords to be used
  42 ;;          as search strings).
  43 ;;
  44 ;;      To continue the previous search, i.e., to search for the next occurrence
  45 ;;      of the keywords, use refer-find-next-entry, or invoke refer-find-entry
  46 ;;      with a prefix argument.
  47 ;;
  48 ;;      Once you've found the entry you want to reference, invoke
  49 ;;      refer-yank-key to insert it at point in the current buffer
  50 ;;      (typically as the argument of a \cite{} command).
  51 ;;
  52 ;;      I use (define-key tex-mode-map    "\C-c\C-y"  'refer-yank-key)
  53 ;;      to bind this often-used function to a key in (la)tex-mode.
  54 ;;
  55 ;;      If the list of bibliography files changes, reinitialize the variable
  56 ;;      refer-bib-files.
  57 ;;
  58 ;; To customize:
  59 ;;      See variables refer-bib-files, refer-cache-bib-files and
  60 ;;      refer-bib-files-regexp.  By default, these are set up so that refer
  61 ;;      looks for the keywords you specify in all the .bib files in the current
  62 ;;      directory.
  63 ;;
  64 ;;      The only assumption I make about bib files is that they contain a bunch
  65 ;;      of entries, one to a paragraph.  refer-find-entry searches paragraph by
  66 ;;      paragraph, looking for a paragraph containing all the keywords
  67 ;;      specified.  So you should be able to use pretty much any bib file with
  68 ;;      this code.  If your bib file does not use paragraphs to separate
  69 ;;      entries, try setting the paragraph-start/separate variables, or changing
  70 ;;      the (forward-paragraph 1) call in refer-find-entry-in-file.
