(defun bibtex-generate-autokey ()
  "Generates automatically a key from the author/editor and the title field.
This will only work for entries where each field begins on a separate line.
The generation algorithm works as follows:
 1. Use the value of `bibtex-autokey-prefix-string' as a prefix.
 2. If there is a non-empty author (preferred) or editor field,
    use it as the name part of the key.
 3. Change any substring found in
    `bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' to the corresponding new
    one (see documentation of this variable for further detail).
 4. For every of at least first `bibtex-autokey-names' names in
    the name field, determine the last name. If there are maximal
    `bibtex-autokey-names' + `bibtex-autokey-names-stretch'
    names, all names are used.
 5. From every last name, take at least
    `bibtex-autokey-name-length' characters (abort only after a
    consonant or at a word end).
 6. Convert all last names according to the conversion function
    `bibtex-autokey-name-case-convert'.
 7. Build the name part of the key by concatenating all
    abbreviated last names with the string
    `bibtex-autokey-name-separator' between any two. If there are
    more names than are used in the name part, prepend the string
    contained in `bibtex-autokey-additional-names'.
 8. Build the year part of the key by truncating the contents of
    the year field to the rightmost `bibtex-autokey-year-length'
    digits (useful values are 2 and 4). If the year field is
    absent, but the entry has a valid crossref field and the
    variable `bibtex-autokey-year-use-crossref-entry' is non-nil,
    use the year field of the crossreferenced entry instead.
 9. For the title part of the key change the contents of the
    title field of the entry according to
    `bibtex-autokey-titleword-change-strings' to the
    corresponding new one (see documentation of this variable for
    further detail).
10. Abbreviate the result to the string up to (but not including)
    the first occurrence of a regexp matched by the items of
    `bibtex-autokey-title-terminators' and delete those words which
    appear in `bibtex-autokey-titleword-ignore'.
    Build the title part of the key by using at least the first
    `bibtex-autokey-titlewords' words from this
    abbreviated title. If the abbreviated title ends after
    maximal `bibtex-autokey-titlewords' +
    `bibtex-autokey-titlewords-stretch' words, all
    words from the abbreviated title are used.
11. Convert all used titlewords according to the conversion function
    `bibtex-autokey-titleword-case-convert'.
12. For every used title word that appears in
    `bibtex-autokey-titleword-abbrevs' use the corresponding
    abbreviation (see documentation of this variable for further
    detail).
13. From every title word not generated by an abbreviation, take
    at least `bibtex-autokey-titleword-length' characters (abort
    only after a consonant or at a word end).
14. Build the title part of the key by concatenating all
    abbreviated title words with the string
    `bibtex-autokey-titleword-separator' between any two.
15. At least, to get the key, concatenate
    `bibtex-autokey-prefix-string', the name part, the year part
    and the title part with `bibtex-autokey-name-year-separator'
    between the name part and the year part if both are non-empty
    and `bibtex-autokey-year-title-separator' between the year
    part and the title part if both are non-empty. If the year
    part is empty, but not the other two parts,
    `bibtex-autokey-year-title-separator' is used as well.
16. If the value of `bibtex-autokey-before-presentation-function'
    is non-nil, it must be a function taking one argument. This
    function is then called with the generated key as the
    argument. The return value of this function (a string) is
    used as the key.
17. If the value of `bibtex-autokey-edit-before-use' is non-nil,
    the key is then presented in the minibuffer to the user,
    where it can be edited.  The key given by the user is then
    used."

(defun bibtex-mode ()
  "Major mode for editing BibTeX files.

To submit a problem report, enter \\[bibtex-submit-bug-report] from a
BibTeX mode buffer.  This automatically sets up a mail buffer with
version information already added.  You just need to add a description
of the problem, including a reproducable test case and send the
message.


General information on working with BibTeX mode:

You should use commands as \\[bibtex-Book] to get a template for a
specific entry. You should then fill in all desired fields using
\\[bibtex-next-field] to jump from field to field. After having filled
in all desired fields in the entry, you should clean the new entry
with command \\[bibtex-clean-entry].

Some features of BibTeX mode are available only by setting variable
bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries to t. However, then BibTeX mode will
work with buffer containing only valid (syntactical correct) entries
and with entries being sorted. This is usually the case, if you have
created a buffer completely with BibTeX mode and finished every new
entry with \\[bibtex-clean-entry].

For third party BibTeX buffers, please call the function
`bibtex-convert-alien' to fully take advantage of all features of
BibTeX mode.


Special information:

A command such as \\[bibtex-Book] will outline the fields for a BibTeX book entry.

The optional fields start with the string OPT, and are thus ignored by BibTeX.
Alternatives from which only one is required start with the string ALT.
The OPT or ALT string may be removed from a field with \\[bibtex-remove-OPT-or-ALT].
\\[bibtex-make-field] inserts a new field after the current one.
\\[bibtex-kill-field] kills the current field entirely.
\\[bibtex-yank] will yank the last recently killed field after the
current field.
\\[bibtex-remove-delimiters] removes the double-quotes or braces around the text of the current field.
 \\[bibtex-empty-field] replaces the text of the current field with the default \"\" or {}.

The command \\[bibtex-clean-entry] cleans the current entry, i.e. it removes OPT/ALT
from all non-empty optional or alternative fields, checks that no required
fields are empty, and does some formatting dependent on the value of
bibtex-entry-format.
Note: some functions in BibTeX mode depend on entries being in a special
format (all fields beginning on separate lines), so it is usually a bad
idea to remove `realign' from bibtex-entry-format.

Use \\[bibtex-find-text] to position the cursor at the end of the current field.
Use \\[bibtex-next-field] to move to end of the next field.
