bib2wiki

bib2wiki is a perl script to generate a template to cite scientific references on this very website from its $\mathrm{B{\scriptstyle{IB}}\TeX}$ entry.

This is, for instance, an old paper of ours: Electrostatic control of quantum dot entanglement induced by coupling to external reservoirs. E. del Valle, F. P. Laussy and C. Tejedor in Europhys. Lett. 80:57001 (2007).

The rationale is explained in this blog post and examples of its use are in this other blog post.

It is based on BibTeX::Parser.

Usage

# Usage: 
# To print everything:
#   bib2wiki -keys=all
#
# To print one key:
#   bib2wiki -keys=laussy04a
#
# To print several keys:
#   bib2wiki -keys=laussy04a,laussy05a,laussy06a

Script

All versions till v0°5 were written on 16 July (2023).
v0°6 was written on 22 October (2023) to interface with keys2wiki (clearing the screen).
