RefTeX
RefTeX is a reference management software package designed for use with Emacs and BibTeX.[1][2][3][4] While it can cooperate effectively with the popular AUCTeX package, it is not strictly necessary to use them together.[3]
RefTeX obviates the need to tediously search through different parts of a LaTeX document and associated BibTeX files when using cross-referencing macros such as \label
, \ref
, \cite
, and \index
. It also provides an interface for visualizing and quickly navigating a LaTeX document's structure.[5]
RefTeX is distributed under the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Carsten Dominik, the author of org-mode and CDLaTeX, with contributions by Stephen Eglen, and is currently maintained by the AUCTeX project. It has been bundled and pre-installed with Emacs since version 20.2.[1]
