This BibNet Project directory contains subject-specific
bibliographies, mostly in the area of Numerical Analysis.

File extensions indicate the file contents:

     .bib            BibTeX bibliography file
     .dvi            TeX DVI file for the typeset bibliography
     .html           HyperText Markup Language file, usually a translation
                     of a BibTeX file to provide hypertext links
     .ltx            LaTeX wrapper file for printing the bibliography
     .pdf            Adobe Acrobat Portable Document File created from 
                     the PostScript file
     .ps.gz          GNU gzip compressed PostScript file created from
                     the .dvi file
     .sed            UNIX sed script for converting old citation labels;
                     this has been superceded by .sub files, because of
                     capacity and speed limitations of sed.
     .sok            spelling exception dictionary for .bib file
     .sub            citation label substitution file for citesub (use
                     for converting old (La)TeX files to new labels
                     in the BibNet Project standard style,
                     name:year:abbrev)
     .twx            title-word cross-reference file input by the
                     .ltx file

The ordering of entries in the bibliographies is generally by year,
and within each year, alphabetical by citation label.  This gives a
reasonable approximation to publication order, which is a useful
order for a subject bibliography, particularly when you are trying
to locate the most recent work.

The ordering of the typeset bibliography is dictated by the style
selected in the \bibliographystyle{} command in the .ltx file; in
most cases, this is is-alpha, which produces a bibliography sorted
by first author, then by year.  If you want a typeset version in
the same order as the entries in the bibliography file, just change
the style to is-unsrt instead, and then retypeset like this:

     latex maple-extract.ltx
     bibtex maple-extract
     latex maple-extract.ltx
     bibtex maple-extract
     latex maple-extract.ltx

To typeset the LaTeX files, you will need some additional LaTeX
*.sty and BibTeX *.bst style files that are available in the
ftp.math.utah.edu:/pub/bibnet/tools/examples directory.

The is-xxx bibliography styles are extensions of the standard ones
which support additional ISBN (International Standard Book Number),
LCCN (Library of Congress Catalog Number), URL (Uniform Resource
Locator), price, and pages fields.

ISBNs have been in worldwide use by publishers since 1972; they
contain four hyphen- (or blank-) separated fields which serve to
identify the language group, the publisher and the book itself; the
fourth field is a check digit in [0-9X] used to validate the ISBN.
Bookstores and library catalogs can use ISBNs to locate a book more
precisely than one can with just the usual author, title, and
publisher information.

URLs are a recent addition to the Internet: they are used by World
Wide Web browsers in HTML (HyperText Markup language) files to
locate resources.  They look like
resourcetype://Internet-hostname/pathname.

Every bibliography entry contains a URL in its bibsource value
pointing to the master bibliography from which the entry was
extracted, so that any subsequent copying of entries into other
bibliographies should maintain the origin, where the latest version
may be expected to be found.

A growing number of bibliography entries contain URL fields that
point to electronic versions of the material, and some of the file
headers in the .ltx and .bib files contain a URL to the author's
home page on the Internet, where that information is available.

The .dvi files can be viewed or printed using any DVI file
previewer or translator; they require only the standard Computer
Modern fonts present in every TeX distribution.

The .ps files can be viewed with a PostScript viewer, or printed on
any PostScript printer.  They are somewhat large, so we have stored
them in compressed form using GNU gzip (available on
prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/gzip*.*, and easily buildable on any UNIX
system; ports to DEC VMS and IBM PC environments are also
available).  gzip is produces better compression than UNIX
compress, and free of the Unisys patent claim on the
Lempel-Ziv-Welch algorithm in compress.  To uncompress such a file,
once gzip is installed, just do something like this

     gunzip maple-extract.ps.gz

If you fetched the file via gopher or a WWW browser, instead of via
FTP, the decompression should have been done automatically for you;
if not, complain to your local gophermaster or webmaster.

The reason that the PostScript files are large is that they contain
Type 1 outline fonts, rather than bitmap fonts, thanks to the
excellent work of Basil K. Malyshev.  These fonts are available in
the CTAN archives (do "finger ctan@pip.shsu.edu" for a list of sites).
The advantage of Type 1 outline fonts over Type 3 bitmap fonts is
resolution independence; especially in PostScript screen previewers,
the font quality is noticeably improved by use of Type 1 fonts.

If you want to view the PostScript files, we recommend use of an
Adobe Acrobat reader (freely available on ftp.adobe.com for several
personal computer and workstation architectures) on the .pdf file.
This provides zoom, pan, string searching, printing of selected
pages, and very rapid display, independent of the size of the .pdf
file.
