DESCRIPTION

BibTeX bibliography formatter presents a BibTeX bibliography within a
content item in a human-readable format. bib files are included with the
syntax {bibtex}filename.bib{/bibtex}, and bibliography entries are
formatted as HTML in a language-dependent manner. The plugin handles
some common LaTeX accents and special symbols, which are converted to
UTF-8. Linked to the formatted entries, raw BibTeX is included in the
output as preformatted text.

The plugin uses a collection of PHP classes to manipulate BibTeX files,
which are downloadable from https://bibliophile.sourceforge.net under the
GPL licence.


USAGE

During installation, sample BibTeX files are copied to the folder
"/media/bibtex/example" relative to the Joomla portal root. Should you
type the line

{bibtex}example.bib{/bibtex}

into a content item (after you have enabled the extension), you can test
whether the plug-in works correctly.

You can explicitly set the location of the BibTeX files in the
administration backend. The "BibTeX folder" plugin parameter can be set
to an absolute file system path or a relative path. Relative paths are
interpreted w.r.t. the folder in which the Joomla web site resides.
