semicolon not accepted in key names #90

I could not find a official source for bibtex grammar but bibdesk automatic key generation algorithm can generate keys with semicolons in them:

With biblatex I also have no problem using keys with semicolons in my latex files. However, bibtex-ruby does not seem to like semicolons:

Yes, I often find it hard to find official BibTeX specs, too : )

Thanks for reporting! I'll push this to rubygems in a minute.
