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

-------------readme.txt for bible package README.TXT for BiBLE for Windows V0.99 (15.03.2000) ******************************************************************
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@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.
