If you want to make your own ‘My Online Publications Page’ (MOPP) similar to mine here’s what you have to do :

1. in case you are running Linux, all you need is the mopp package and follow the instruction on this page.
2. if you are onto Mac OSX you have to get and compile a few more packages. To start, go to the BibTeX bibliography tools page and download the bibclean file. Go to the directory, do a ./configure and a make and copy the resulting executable bibclean to the bibtools/bin folder of your mopp-folder (see first step).
3. get the latest gawk package. Do a ./configure, then a make and a sudo make install and gawk gets installed at /usr/local/bin/gawk. Make a symbolic link (or use a bruteforce copy) to /usr/bin/gawk.
4. Make a symbolic link or a bruteforce sudo cp /bin/ksh /usr/bin/ksh.
5. If you are using only scanned pdf-files it is sufficient to get DjVu-versions of them using the Any2DjVu service. If you want to do the conversion from Pdflatex-files yourself, get the DjVuLibre package, configure, make and install it as before. All programs get installed under /usr/local/bin, write down the files in the djvu/bin folder of the mopp-folder, remove them and copy your compiled version of them from /usr/local/bin to the djvu/bin directory.
6. Open the work/mopp.sh script of the mopp-folder in an editor, comment out the recode line and change the awk line into
   awk -v THENAME=”$MOPPNAME” -v THELOGO=”$MOPPLOGO” -f bib2html.awk \
   (that is add a space after the two -v options).
7. You should now be able to follow the remaining instruction from the How to make “My Online Publications Page” page to get a mopp-page which looks roughly like this one.
   
8. If you want to change the layout of that page, you should modify the work/bibtex2html.awk file to fit your taste. If you want to have a layout similar to mine email me and I’ll send you my bibtex2html.awk file.
