Long overdue merge. Don't require `compile' since it seems unnecessary. For all internal variables and functions the docstring comments have been converted into proper docstrings (bibtex-maintainer-address, bibtex-maintainer-salutation) (bibtex-version): Remove support for bug reporting. (bibtex-field-delimiters, bibtex-entry-delimiters) (bibtex-sort-ignore-string-entries, bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries) Replace make-variable-buffer-local by make-local-variable for (bibtex-entry-format): New tag `required-fields'.

GNU Emacs 19.x and above do not compile out of the box on OpenVMS.
Richard Levitte <[e-mail]> is distributing and maintaining a
version of Emacs (currently based on version 19.28, but soon moving to
19.34 and then 20.1) that compiles and works on OpenVMS 5.5 and above
on both VAX and Alpha architectures.  For more information see
