I'd like to be able to export BibTeX entries as (flexibly formatted) strings.
For example, a BibTeX entry like this one:
@Article{Chomsky:59,
author = {Noam Chomsky},
title = {On Certain Formal Properties of Grammars},
year = {1959},
volume = {2},
pages = {137--167},
journal = {Information and Control}
}
Should be converted into the following string:
Chomsky, Noam. 1959. On Certain Formal Properties of Grammars. Information and Control 2. 137--167.
I used to manage my BibTeX database with JabRef which lets you customize exportscustomize exports. But I haven't seen something similar in Emacs/bibtex.el
