PUBINDEX(1) General Commands Manual PUBINDEX(1) NAME pubindex - make inverted bibliographic index SYNOPSIS pubindex [ file ] ... DESCRIPTION Pubindex makes a hashed inverted index to the named files for use by refer(1). The files contain bibliographic references separated by blank lines. A bibliographic reference is a set of lines that contain bibliographic information fields. Each field starts on a line begin- ning with a `%', followed by a key-letter, followed by a blank, and followed by the contents of the field, which continues until the next line starting with `%'. The most common key-letters and the corre- sponding fields are: A Author name B Title of book containing article referenced C City D Date d Alternate date E Editor of book containing article referenced G Government (CFSTI) order number I Issuer (publisher) J Journal K Other keywords to use in locating reference M Technical memorandum number N Issue number within volume O Other commentary to be printed at end of reference P Page numbers R Report number r Alternate report number T Title of article, book, etc. V Volume number X Commentary unused by pubindex Except for `A', each field should only be given once.
