kbibtex

Saturday 01 July 2006

After I saw people, who have to take care of the references on their own, I am always glad that bibtex does that for me. After looking around for several month now, the program I like best for editing my bibtex database is kbibtex. It is really nice; the possibility to enter wrong things is relatively low and there are no UTF-8 problems. The roadmap looks also promising. It is a pity that it is not included in Debian yet.

Perhaps it can be quickened if someone can help with writing a good documentation (that's a hint for all of you who have some spare time ;) ).

Thomas also said to me on jabber that he would be happy if someone could make a code-review.

So a big thank you to Thomas Fischer for making my life more easy :)

Now I know that this is a whimpy question, but does it crash *very* frequently? Or only every now and then?

I'm currently using pybliographic 1.2.5, which is not too bad - except that they forgot to actually implement the search capabilities. A bit of a hassle if you're looking for the right key among ninety-something publications. Grepping through the .bib file is not really a replacement though it might actually be quicker.
