NAME
     glookbib - search bibliographic databases

SYNOPSIS
     glookbib [ -v ] [ -istring ] [ -tn ] filename...

     It  is  possible  to  have whitespace between a command line
     option and its parameter.

DESCRIPTION
     glookbib prints a prompt on the standard error  (unless  the
     standard  input  is not a terminal), reads from the standard
     input a line containing a set of keywords, searches the bib-
     liographic  databases  filename... for references containing
     those keywords, prints any references found on the  standard
     output,  and  repeats  this  process until the end of input.
     For each database filename to be searched, if an index file-
     name.i  created  by  gindxbib(1)  exists,  then  it  will be
     searched instead; each index can cover multiple databases.

OPTIONS
     -v   Print the version number.

     -istring
          When searching files for which no index exists,  ignore
          the contents of fields whose names are in string.

     -tn  Only  require  the  first  n  characters  of keys to be
          given.  Initially n is 6.

FILES
     filename.i  Index files.
