A new package has been installed on tug.ctan.org and should soon make its way to your favorite mirror.

Thanks for the material, Jim Hefferon

======================================================================

The following information was provided by the package's contributor.

Name of contribution: bibfile-reformat-pages Author's name: Barak A. Pearlmutter Location on CTAN: biblio/bibtex/utils/bibfile-reformat-pages Summary description: puts .bib file page ranges into uniform format (abbreviated or not as requested) License type: gpl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Small gawk script to put all the pages= page ranges in a .bib file into a uniform format, either 1234-1256 or upon request 1234-56; 12-12 always scrunched to just 1234; squeezes out spaces around separator; can make all separators one-dash or two-dashes upon request. Very very conservative: probably impossible for it to actually mess up a file. - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
