OK. So the next line I should read after the 0, 1 lines is the
codepage bit. That's what I get when run from the DOS command
prompt. OK. So I should see that on-screen as well. And I
don't. Instead, I get a message from TeX itself ... which of course
doesn't have a clue what to do with the \bibstyle in the .aux file.

OK. So it sounds like something really twisted in my machine and TeX
itself gets involved once BibTeX's been invoked.

It was a couple of weeks ago ;-) You go into the `Special' menu in
DVIWindo, and activate `Pause WinExe Calls'. I've got `Show' WinExe
Calls' also active these days, as I try to figure out this BibTeX
thing.

Actually, I see that most of the entries in this menu are active --
oh, everything, except `Working Directory'.

While you're at it, go into the Fonts menu, and activate the `Color
Fonts' option -- I love this feature!

Well well ... this list is serving its purpose ;-) As long as what you
meant was the DVIWindo `TeX' menu and not `tools'  ;-))
