I do not know if this is the right forum to ask this. I use bibtex.el/auctex/reftex for managing my bibtex database in emacs.
Is there a way to sort the database records by a particular field, and to be able to search and replace a string in a particular field of a bibtex database using emacs?
Would appreciate any pointers.

Maybe the replace function could be achieved with a regexp replace search... Nevertheless with a small perl script youd could get it (I think) in an relatively easy way. -- :: Igor Sosa Mayor :: joseleopoldo1792@gmail.com :: :: GnuPG: 0x1C1E2890 :: http://www.gnupg.org/ :: :: jabberid: rogorido :: :: ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
