Package: bibindex
Version: 2.10-3
The Utah-archive `cryptography' database
ftp://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/cryptography.bib
contains some very long string names for common periodicals their
addresses etc. BibTeX is fine with this, but bibindex refuses to index
such files unless it's patched:
--- biblook.h~ Wed Apr 5 22:53:29 2000

#define MAJOR_VERSION 2 /* program version */

+#define MAXWORD 63 /* maximum length of word indexed */
#define MAXSTRING 4095 /* maximum length of line handled */
typedef char Word[MAXWORD+1];
typedef char String[MAXSTRING+1];
Unfortunately, this makes the resulting bibindex incompatible with
previously-generated .bix indices. This is kind of a shame, but I think
having a bibindex which works is more useful.
