Analyses BibTeX files with file extension .bib and writes GAMS source files that can be used to create various author, reference and cross reference reports.

Usage

bib2gms bibinput [ option referencemap [key=value] ]

'Reads' BIB files and writes GAMS source files that can be used to create various author, reference and cross reference reports. The BibInput file usually contains many more entries then are needed for the specific GAMS application and the BIB document names need to be mapped into GAMS set elements. This mapping is specified in the ReferenceMap file.

Bib2gms will produce a number of gams include files and a GAMS main program that demonstrates the use of the include files.

Examples

bib2gms myfile.bib

bib2gms "my blanks.abc" R=mymap GmsFile="my gams.gms"

bib2gms bibin i = stem

The file RefrecnceMap (R) contains the name of the BIB entries to be extracted from the BIB input file. If no (R) file names is given, all entries will be selected and the original BIB record names will be used. Each line contains the reference name of the entry to be included. You can enter a single name or the pair <gams> <bib> to rename the <bib> reference name to the new <gams> name.

Example of RefrenceMap file:

* lines staring with * or # are ignored
* empty lines are ignore as well
* spaces are ignored
* tabs , and . are all whitespace
r1 mybibref2
r2,mybibref5
r3.mybibref1
r4
* a single ref entry assumes the BIB record name is the same as the
* gams name, r4 r4
*
* The GAMS maintained master BIB file has references named g00001, g00002,..
* A reference name consisting of digits only will be renamed
* to form one of those g0000x names. For example:
r5 12
