Text-BibTeX (0.36)

I've used this for a project to generate BibTeX entries from a list of publications. It seems to work quite well.

But it doesn't seem to do any escaping of characters (perhaps I need to RT*M a bit more?). I also needed to convert the author list from comma-separated string to "and" separated. Not a big deal, but this is probably a common task that a module with utility functions would be helpful.

I also wish there was a "Simple" interface for generating "regular" BibTeX entries based on a hash.

Still, it saved me from writing code to generate or parse BibTeX.
