I want to use latex2rtf to generate an online RTF version of user-supplied
data (specifically bibtex data) but I can't find a way to ensure that a user
can't get away with things like "\input /etc/passwd" in an entry.

Actually, I do this:

        \begin{thebibliography}{xx}
        \let\input\relax
        \let\openin\relax
        \let\openout\relax
        \let\import\relax
        \let\include\relax
        \let\catcode\relax

which seems to work but I'm not happy that a clever TeXhacker couldn't find
a way around that.

Regular TeX allows a few flags in texmf.cnf (shell_escape=f, openout_any=p
openin_any=p) which seem, on paper at least, to do the job.

Are there similar options in latex2rtf?

Regards,
