NAME

citetags - extract BibTeX citation tags from a LaTeX source or .aux file

SYNOPSIS

citetags LaTeX source or .aux file >tagsfile

DESCRIPTION

citetags extracts BibTeX citation tags from a LaTeX source file or .aux file and sends them to stdout, possibly for later input to citefind(1).

citetags and citefind(1) can be used to extract from a large BibTeX bibliography data base just those bibliography entries that are actually used in a particular document, perhaps for submission to a publisher, or distribution in electronic form.


BUGS

citetags is not smart enough to incorporate BibTeX cross references unless they are themselves cited.

That feature should be added.
