28 __lkbib__ searches bibliographic databases for references
29 that contain the keys ''key''... and prints any
30 references found on the standard output. __lkbib__ will
31 search any databases given by __-p__ options, and then a
32 default database. The default database is taken from the
33 __REFER__ environment variable if it is
34 set, otherwise it is __/usr/dict/papers/Ind__. For each
35 database ''filename'' to be searched, if an index
36 ''filename''__.i__ created by indxbib(1)
37 exists, then it will be searched instead; each index can
38 cover multiple databases.
