I am very happy with emacs+auctex+bibtex+reftex for this.  Here is the 
code that I use in my .emacs file to turn on the bells and whistles:

;; Auctex mode
(require 'tex-site)
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)  ;if you want this
;; Reftex mode
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex) 
(setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t)
(setq reftex-extra-bindings t)


If you are using a newer version of xemacs, you may need to put this in
~/.xemacs/init.el instead.
