NAME

       pybtex - BibTeX-compatible bibliography processor in Python

SYNOPSIS

       pybtex [ options ] auxfile.aux

DESCRIPTION

       Pybtex reads citation information from a LaTeX .aux file and produces a
       formatted bibliography. Pybtex understands BibTeX .bib and  .bst  style
       files and can be used as a drop-in replacement for BibTeX.

       Besides  BibTeX  .bib  files,  BibTeXML and YAML bibliography files are
       supported.

       It is also possible to define bibliography formatting styles in Python.
