### 4.3 Citation Info

When point is idle for more than `reftex-idle-time` seconds on the argument of a `\cite` macro, the echo area will display some information about the article cited there. Note that the information is only displayed if the echo area is not occupied by a different message.

RefTeX can also display the `\bibitem` or BibTeX database entry corresponding to a `\cite` macro, or all citation locations corresponding to a `\bibitem` or BibTeX database entry. See Viewing Cross-References.
