How to convert#

Copy bib2mab.exe (Windows) or bib2mab (Linux) into the directory holding the files in Bibliotheca WIN format and run it. All files with the extension *.imp are converted. The MAB files are then available with the extension *.mab.

Individual files can be converted by passing them as an argument:

bib2mab.exe export.imp
