reftex: Citations Outside LaTeX

 
 4.5 Citations outside LaTeX
 ===========================
 
 The command ‘reftex-citation’ can also be executed outside a LaTeX
 buffer.  This can be useful to reference articles in the mail buffer and
 other documents.  You should _not_ enter ‘reftex-mode’ for this, just
 execute the command.  The list of BibTeX files will in this case be
 taken from the variable ‘reftex-default-bibliography’.  Setting the
 variable ‘reftex-cite-format’ to the symbol ‘locally’ does a decent job
 of putting all relevant information about a citation directly into the
 buffer.  Here is the lisp code to add the ‘C-c [’ binding to the mail
 buffer.  It also provides a local binding for ‘reftex-cite-format’.
 
      (add-hook 'mail-setup-hook
                (lambda () (define-key mail-mode-map "\C-c["
                             (lambda ()
                               (interactive)
                               (let ((reftex-cite-format 'locally))
                                 (reftex-citation))))))
