Hi,

Is there somewhere a documentation with a simple helpful example to follow
from step to step in order to use ox-bibtex or bibeltex ? I got only a
message error : "bibtex2html failed" and I do not understand why.

Reading this page, for example,
http://bowenli37.wordpress.com/tag/org-exp-bibtex/
I understand that I must add #+LINK ..

But nothing works...

Thanks in advance for your help

Jo.
