About

BibTex Manager is a bib file editor built for individuals who write LaTeX markup (i.e., they don't use WYSIWYG style editors). It is focused on rapid entry, fixing, and organization of bibliography entries. It is built for speed and ease of entry. It is designed for the customization of tools for fixing entries. It may take a bit of customization to achieve all the results you want. However, once done, you can automatically correct issues and create clean BibTeX entries with a couple of clicks.

BibTeX Manager main user interface.

It has a heavy emphasis on two features:

  • Importing and correcting bibliography entries from third-party sources.
  • Organizing the structure and order of bibliography entries and files.

Importing

Third-party bibliography entries are often structured in odd or inconsistent ways. They also frequently contain errors and do not use meaningful names for the cite keys. BibTeX Manager includes features for removing errors, organizing and renaming tag names, and automatically generating meaningful cite keys.

Organization

BibTeX Manager includes features to keep bibliography entries and files ordered. Think of it as your personal OCD relief assistant.

What BibTex Manager Is Not

It is not a generalized full-feature reference/research manager. If you are looking for one of those, consider Jabref. It is a full-featured manager that includes algorithms for common cleanup issues. https://www.jabref.org/
