bibsort
may fail on some UNIX systems if their
sort(1)
implementations cannot handle very long lines,
because for sorting purposes, each complete
bibliography entry is temporarily folded into a
single line. You may be able to overcome this
problem by adding a
-znnnnn
option to the
sort(1)
command (passed via the command line to
bibsort)
to increase the maximum line size to some larger
value of
nnnnn
bytes. According to their documentation, some UNIX
sort(1)
implementations require a space after
-z,
others forbid it, and still others do not support it at all.
If a space is required, you must quote the pair,
to prevent the
nnnnn
value from being interpreted as a filename by
bibsort.
