[Refdb-devel] backend-bibtex.c + runbib

[Damien J. D. <D.J...@cs...>]

Dear Markus

I've made 3 changes to programs in my refdb installation and I thought I
should let you know about them before the next release proper. They're
just simple changes where something wasn't working as I should like it.

I'm sending to the refdb-devel list because it's all written in lingua
programming.
