Hi, Steve, I have to support this. Although I do not like Emacs (to say it mildly) and do not have it installed, I have to admit that from among BibTeX-in-texteditor, its bibtex-mode is _by far_ the best what I've seen, and particularly vim's bibtex mode is just a joke. Alternative to Emacs bibtex-mode are different BibTeX-as-database programs -- tkbibtex, or (what I've used) pybliographer, or Java jabref. You will be certainly much better with them, than just with vim (although that's what I use most of the time -- sometimes I use Kate).
