NAME

       pbibtex, upbibtex - make a (Japanese) bibliography for (La)TeX


SYNOPSIS

       pbibtex [options] auxname[.aux]


DESCRIPTION

       pBibTeX  (pbibtex)  is  a  modified version of BibTeX for Japanese han-
       dling.  It sorts entries according to code points in EUC-JP.   Also,  a
       new  built-in  function is.kanji.str$ which determines whether an entry
       is outside ASCII is introduced.

       upBibTeX (upbibtex) is a  modified  version  of  pBibTeX,  which  sorts
       entries according to code points in Unicode.


Extensions to Bibliography Style Functions

       A new built-in function is available, and some other functions are mod-
       ified to simplify Japanese handling.


       is.kanji.str$
            [New feature] Pops the top (string) literal to see if it  contains
            any  non-ASCII characters. Pushes 1 if it contains at least one, 0
            if not.


       substring$
            Modified to avoid dividing a character string in the middle  of  a
            multibyte character.


       text.prefix$
            Similar modification to substring$ described above.


       add.period$
            Modified to prevent appending "." after Japanese punctuations cor-
            responding to "!", "?" and "."  (e.g. U+FF01, U+FF1F,  U+3002  and
            U+FF0E).


       format.name$
            Modified to accept Japanese zenkaku ideographic space (U+3000) for
            names displayed in Japanese.  Also modified to recognize  Japanese
            commas (U+3001 and U+FF0C) similar to "and" between names.

AUTHORS

       Japanese  version of BibTeX was originally developed by Shouichi Matsui
       as JBibTeX until 1991.  It was developed to  behave  consistently  with
       NTT JTeX in handling legacy Japanese encodings.  The old documentations
       jbibtex.pdf, jbtxdoc.tex,  jbtxhak.tex  (all  available  in  TeX  Live)
       describe  Japanese  handling  capability  and  some additional notes of
       JBibTeX.

       Current (u)pBibTeX is a forked version of JBibTeX, and has replaced the
       encoding  conversion  routine  with one that is compatible with (u)pTeX
       community edition using the ptexenc library.  Note that descriptions of
       encodings  in  the old documentations j*.pdf (especially Section 3.3 of
       jbibtex.pdf, such as BIBTERMCODE and BIBFILECODE)  are  incorrect  any-
       more.
