10

DESCRIPTION

12       pBibTeX  (pbibtex)  is  a  modified version of BibTeX for Japanese han‐
13       dling.  It sorts entries according to code points in EUC-JP.   Also,  a
14       new  built-in  function is.kanji.str$ which determines whether an entry
15       is outside ASCII is introduced.
16
17       upBibTeX (upbibtex) is a modified version of pBibTeX, which  sorts  en‐
18       tries according to code points in Unicode.

Extensions to Bibliography Style Functions

21       A new built-in function is available, and some other functions are mod‐
22       ified to simplify Japanese handling.
23
24       is.kanji.str$
25            [New feature] Pops the top (string) literal to see if it  contains
26            any  non-ASCII characters. Pushes 1 if it contains at least one, 0
27            if not.
28
29       substring$
30            Modified to avoid dividing a character string in the middle  of  a
31            multibyte character.
32
33       text.prefix$
34            Similar modification to substring$ described above.
35
36       add.period$
37            Modified to prevent appending "." after Japanese punctuations cor‐
38            responding to "!", "?" and "."  (e.g. U+FF01, U+FF1F,  U+3002  and
39            U+FF0E).
40
41       format.name$
42            Modified to accept Japanese zenkaku ideographic space (U+3000) for
43            names displayed in Japanese.  Also modified to recognize  Japanese
44            commas (U+3001 and U+FF0C) similar to "and" between names.

AUTHORS

50       Japanese  version of BibTeX was originally developed by Shouichi Matsui
51       as JBibTeX until 1991.  It was developed to  behave  consistently  with
52       NTT JTeX in handling legacy Japanese encodings.  The old documentations
53       jbibtex.pdf, jbtxdoc.tex, jbtxhak.tex (all available in TeX  Live)  de‐
54       scribe  Japanese handling capability and some additional notes of JBib‐
55       TeX.
56
57       Current (u)pBibTeX is a forked version of JBibTeX, and has replaced the
58       encoding  conversion  routine  with one that is compatible with (u)pTeX
59       community edition using the ptexenc library.  Note that descriptions of
60       encodings  in  the old documentations j*.pdf (especially Section 3.3 of
61       jbibtex.pdf, such as BIBTERMCODE and BIBFILECODE)  are  incorrect  any‐
62       more.
