  readme =       "The initial draft of this bibliography was derived
                 from the OCLC Contents1st database, after conversion to
                 BibTeX form, and extensive editing and correction. This
                 was then augmented with entries from the author's
                 personal bibliography files, from the computer graphics
                 bibliography archive at ftp.siggraph.org, and from a
                 very large computer science bibliography collection on
                 ftp.ira.uka.de in /pub/bibliography to which many
                 people of have contributed. The snapshot of this
                 collection was taken on 5-May-1994, and it consists of
                 441 BibTeX files, 2,672,675 lines, 205,289 entries, and
                 6,375 <at>String{} abbreviations, occupying 94.8MB of
                 disk space. Where multiple sources of a particular
                 entry existed, field values have been manually merged
                 to preserve maximal information. \par In the entries
                 below, bibsource strings record short relative file
                 path names to the note the origin of the entry, though
                 in many cases, the entry has since been corrected or
                 extended. \par Regrettably, the OCLC databases do not
                 cover the journal ACM Fortran Forum, which is what I
                 first set out to find. It seemed worthwhile to preserve
                 the results of the searches in this general
                 bibliography on Fortran. \par A great many hours of
                 editing effort have been devoted to tracking down
                 missing or incomplete information in these entries, but
                 some still have gaps due to deficiencies of the
                 original catalog sources. A lot of hand work was also
                 required to provide the field markup that is mostly
                 absent from library catalogs. Were libraries to adopt a
                 rigorous catalog markup system, perhaps SGML based, and
                 subjectable to automatic syntax, spelling, and
                 consistency checks, the academic community would
                 benefit significantly.",
