The typical usage is to run LaTeX on a document such as documentclass{article} usepackage{ltb2bib} egin{document} writebib{bblsource}{bibdest} end{document} This will convert the bibliographical entries in bblsource.ltb to BibTeX format, and write them to bibdest.bib.

Typical uses are: * produce bib entries for some publishers which don't accept amsrefs (Taylor & Francis, for example); * import an ltb database in a database management program, e.g. for sorting; * access one's ltb database within emacs's RefTeX mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ltb2bib The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/biblio/ltb2bib ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
