You are welcome to try and write such a parser, I would be quite happy to apply it.
Cool, thanks.
I don't think it is an easy task at all actually. I could not find a specification for the BibTeX syntax when I was looking into it.
That's okay. I prefer difficult tasks to easy ones. :-)
Lack of a formal spec is no problem. The bibtex source code is very clear, and as long as we use the same parsing logic as bibtex itself, the parser is guaranteed to be 100% compatible.
