The text::bibtex module provides functions to read, parse and write bibtex files using perl.

the package provides two fundamental modules for processing bibtex files (text::bibtex::file and text::bibtex::entry).

in addition, the text::bibtex module provides a number of miscellaneous functions that are useful in processing bibtex data (especially the kind that comes from bibliographies as defined by bibtex 0.99, rather than generic database files).
