Ahhhh. I see that there is no "plaintext" function within InsetBibtex. It would be easy enough to add one to output what appears on the screen but more than that would indeed require you to compile the LaTeX file as you describe above. However, once you have the .dvi file, can't you just use that? Why not use catdvi (catdvi.sourceforge.net) to do the work for you? -- Angus
