urlbst – Web support for BibTeX
Supports a new BibTeX ‘webpage’ entry type and ‘url’, ‘lastchecked’, and ‘eprint’ and ‘DOI’ fields. The Perl script urlbst can be used to add this support to an arbitrary .bst file which has a reasonably conventional structure. The result is meant to be robust rather than pretty.
