OPTIONS
    --help, -h
        Show help
        
    --omit
        Remove specified fields from bibliography entries.
        
        Examples:
        --omit=id,name
        
    --curly, --no-curly
        Enclose all property values in braces. Quoted values
        will be converted to braces. For example, "Journal of
        Tea" will become {Journal of Tea}.
        
    --numeric, --no-numeric
        Strip quotes and braces from numeric/month values. For
        example, {1998} will become 1998.
        
    --space
        Indent all fields with the specified number of spaces.
        Ignored if tab is set.
        
        Examples:
        --space=2 (default), --space=4
        
    --tab, --no-tab
        Indent all fields with a tab.
        
    --align, --no-align
        Insert whitespace between fields and values so that
        values are visually aligned.
        
        Examples:
        --align=14 (default)
        
    --blank-lines, --no-blank-lines
        Insert an empty line between each entry.
        
    --sort, --no-sort
        Sort entries by specified fields. For descending order,
        prefix the field with a dash (-).
        
        Examples:
        --sort (sort by id), --sort=-year,name (sort year
        descending then name ascending), --sort=name,year
        
    --duplicates
        Warn if duplicates are found, which are entries where
        DOI, abstract, or author and title are the same.
        
        Examples:
        --duplicates doi (same DOIs), --duplicates key (same
        IDs), --duplicates abstract (similar abstracts),
        --duplicates citation (similar author and titles),
        --duplicates doi, key (identical DOI or keys),
        --duplicates (same DOI, key, abstract, or citation)
        
    --merge, --no-merge
        Merge duplicates entries. Use the duplicates option to
        determine how duplicates are identified. There are
        different ways to merge:
        
        - first: only keep the original entry
        
        - last: only keep the last found duplicate
        
        - combine: keep original entry and merge in fields of
        duplicates if they do not already exist
        
        - overwrite: keep original entry and merge in fields of
        duplicates, overwriting existing fields if they exist
        
    --strip-enclosing-braces
        Where an entire value is enclosed in double braces,
        remove the extra braces. For example, {{Journal of Tea}}
        will become {Journal of Tea}.
        
    --drop-all-caps
        Where values are all caps, make them title case. For
        example, {JOURNAL OF TEA} will become {Journal of Tea}.
        Roman numerals will be left unchanged.
        
    --escape, --no-escape
        Escape special characters, such as umlaut. This ensures
        correct typesetting with latex. Enabled by default.
        
    --sort-fields
        Sort the fields within entries.
        
        If no fields are specified fields will be sorted by:
        title, shorttitle, author, year, month, day, journal,
        booktitle, location, on, publisher, address, series,
        volume, number, pages, doi, isbn, issn, url, urldate,
        copyright, category, note, metadata
        
        Examples:
        --sort-fields=name,author
        
    --strip-comments, --no-strip-comments
        Remove all comments from the bibtex source.
        
    --trailing-commas, --no-trailing-commas
        End the last key value pair in each entry with a comma.
        
    --encode-urls, --no-encode-urls
        Replace invalid URL characters with percent encoded
        values.
        
    --tidy-comments, --no-tidy-comments
        Remove whitespace surrounding comments.
        
    --remove-empty-fields, --no-remove-empty-fields
        Remove any fields that have empty values.
        
    --remove-dupe-fields, --no-remove-dupe-fields
        Only allow one of each field in each entry. Enabled by
        default.
        
    --generate-keys
        For all entries replace the key with a new key of the
        form <author><year><title>. A JabRef citation pattern
        can be provided. This is an experimental option that may
        change without warning.
        
    --max-authors
        Truncate authors if above a given number into "and
        others".
        
    --no-lowercase
        Lowercase field names and entry type. Enabled by
        default.
        
    --enclosing-braces
        Enclose the given fields in double braces, such that
        case is preserved during BibTeX compilation.
        
        Examples:
        --enclosing-braces=title,journal (output title and
        journal fields will be of the form {{This is a title}}),
        --enclosing-braces (equivalent to
        ---enclosing-braces=title)
        
    --remove-braces
        Remove any curly braces within the value, unless they
        are part of a command.
        
        Examples:
        --remove-braces=title,journal, --remove-braces
        (equivalent to ---remove-braces=title)
        
    --wrap, --no-wrap
        Wrap long values at the given column
        
        Examples:
        --wrap (80 by default), --wrap=82
        
    --version, -v
        Show bibtex-tidy version.
        
    --quiet
        Suppress logs and warnings.
