The author of the BiBLE package, Kai Schreiber has clarified the license
conditions, so that we can move it from the nonfree part of CTAN into the
standard tree. The path is therefore now
bibliography/bibtex/utils/bible

******************************************************************
Before you use this software, read and understand the following:
1. BiBLE was written because I wanted a convenient way to edit my
own BibTeX library. I can't and won't guarantee that it works
with yours. Try it at your own risk.
2. Don't use the program on your library before you know what you're
doing. Create a backup copy of your library.
3. If you find any errors or have suggestions for future versions,
tell me. Maybe I'll include them. schreiber(a)genista.de
4. You may redistribute this package only as a whole with all the
files unchanged. The distribution contains:
bible.exe - the win32 executable
bible.hlp - the windows helpfile
bible.ini - initialization file
test.bib - demonstration database
readme.txt - this file
versions.txt - the version history
5. BiBLE is free to use.
6. Read the windows helpfile.
7. The .ini-file contains the information about the possible itemtypes
and their fields. If you want to add custom items, you can do so.
Just add another type-name to the types=... line, and a line
saying typename=x,f,f,f,f. The x is the number of required fields
following, the fs are the numbers of the field in the fields=...
line. If you want to add your own optional or required fields DO SO
ONLY AT THE END OF THAT LINE or all the other items will get messed
up. The line starting with choice= contains alternative field pairs.
Don't change the first pair, as it is the only one where you can have
both field values set (type inbook, fields chapter and/or pages). If
you need custom fields with and/or behaviour contact me and explain
why.
8. Have fun.
