Yep, it relies "on the venerable bibTeX for sorting and generating...".

For the ones interested, the problems are (with BibTeX and for a cursory
look of the 185 pages! source built from chunks taken here and there):

1) It was designed for 7 bits---I will extend to 8 bits clean;

2) It apparently uses/computes size of the resulting entries using hard
coded size of cmr10 letters (for ASCII range). That's perhaps the reason
why the results, for latin1 or latin2, are not optimal (if I understand 
what others have said about problems), and why some of the process is
done outside.

Nonetheless, due to popular demand, it seems I will have to include
it... And write a man page. Happy Christmas, Thierry!
