bib2xhtml is a program that converts BibTeX files into
HTML (specifically XHTML 1.0).
The conversion is mostly done by specialized BibTeX style files,
derived from a converted bibliography style template.
This ensures that the original BibTeX styles are faithfully
reproduced.
Some postprocessing is performed by Perl code.
This is a fork of the
bib2html program written by David Hull in 1996 and
maintained by him until 1998.
I have been a happy user of the program since 1995, using the program
to keep my
publication list up to date,
and, to generate the
on-line bibliography list
for my books
Code Quality: The Open Source Perspective
(Addison-Wesley 2006) and
Code Reading: The Open Source Perspective
(Addison-Wesley 2003).
After 1998 no other changes were made to the program, and I failed
to locate an active program home page.
Since there were a number of changes I needed to bring the program
up to date with evolving web standards,
I decided to adopt bib2html for
maintenance, evolution, and further distribution.
The first new public release made in 2004, featured support for
XHTML 1.0.
A number of subsequent releases fixed a number of problems, and
added many significant features,
such as new presentation formats, more flexible output, and Unicode support.
Given that two projects on freshmeat.net
claim the name bib2html,
on March 2004, I decided to rename the project
into bib2xhtml, to emphasize the result's
XHTML conformance.
