[1mDESCRIPTION[0m
       [1mbibdup [22muses [1mbiblex[22m(1) to lexically analyze BibTeX files and [1mnawk[22m(1)  to
       check  for duplicate @String{...} abbreviations, and duplicate citation
       keys.  Letter case is ignored in  string  comparisons,  by  the  simple
       expedient  of using [1mtr[22m(1) to convert the lexical token stream output by
       [1mbiblex[22m(1) to lower case.

       Duplicates are displayed on the standard output in the form
              Duplicate string abbreviation ["pub-aw"]:
                      # line 1 "ll.bib"
                      # line 141 "master.bib"
              Duplicate key ["lamport:ldp85"]:
                      # line 4 "ll.bib"
                      # line 4172 "master.bib"
              ...
       ANSI/ISO Standard C preprocessor lines identify  the  line  number  and
       file name where the duplicates are detected.
