Subject: bug#30048: 27.0.50; bibtex-reference-keys is in reverse order
Date: Tue, 09 Jan 2018 17:41:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zi5n2al6.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

The function bibtex-parse-keys in lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el accumulates
BibTeX reference keys in the reverse order of that in which they appear
in the corresponding buffer, before storing them in the variable
bibtex-reference-keys.  AFAICT, there is no utility or need for this
ordering, which can be a nuisance for programs wishing to make in/direct
use of this variable.  See bug#28998 for more concrete justification.

A patch to reverse the accumulated value of bibtex-reference-keys
follows in my next email.

Thanks,
