bib2ris spaces in author/editor names

Dear Markus

bib2ris is rather neat isn't it? One thing: at present it does not put 
spaces between names in the author field, so that

   author = "John R. Koza and Matthew J. Streeter and Martin A. Keane",

becomes

   AU  - Koza,JohnR.
   AU  - Streeter,MatthewJ.
   AU  - Keane,MartinA.

I have tested a fix and it seems to work. I wonder if you would give it 
some oversight and update bib2ris.c for me.

...

01326: /*** <djd 20060412> */
01327:      if(j < ptr_partlist->part_len[BTN_FIRST]){
01328:		if (navail >= 1) {
01329:		  strcat(namestring, " ");
01330:		  navail--;
01331:		}
01332:		else {
01333:		  goto haveall;
01334:		}
01335:      }
01336: /*** </djd 20060412> */

Incidentally, does your planned extension to RIS have a place to put 
author contact details?

Also, how easy would it be for me to give bib2ris the ability to convert 
abstract and keyword information? (I believe these become N2 and KW 
fields in RIS)

Thanks for your time
And regards
Damien Jade Duff
