Hi Abhishek, >From what you describe, you are on the right track. In case you have not seen this page: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/latest/ext/tutorial.html it shows how to a create an extension. The example shown there is similar to what you want to accomplish, except that example creates a single todo list from various todos scattered in the document. Perhaps this can be integrated with ideas from this thread? http://groups.google.com/group/sphinx-dev/browse_thread/thread/6db2bb71fcc39dd1/e8694bccec218d99 Seems like citations are a recurring theme...
