Bibfind reads your bib file and prints those references that
match your search string. It works a bit like grep, only it
prints the whole reference (paragraph) and not just the line
that matches. The program is useful for quickly checking
whether a certain reference is in your database, or what year
some guy made that major breakthrough, etc. You can use Perl
regexes in your search string and hence wield the awesome power
of Perl's pattern matching.
