erm, yeah... after adding the filename to the file field, the database of course
needs to be marked as modified...
i should really write some decent access functions for interacting with the
database... then this wouldn't be a problem. but for now, just change the
function below to:
(defun ebib-pdf-file-name ()
"Create a pdf file name of the basis of the current entry key.
The file name is inserted in the file field of the current entry."
(interactive)
(ebib-execute-when
((entries)
(if (gethash 'file ebib-cur-entry-hash)
(beep)
(puthash 'file (concat "{" (car (edb-cur-entry ebib-cur-db)) ".pdf}")
ebib-cur-entry-hash)
(ebib-set-modified t)
(ebib-fill-entry-buffer)))
((default)
(beep))))
this only adds the line (ebib-set-modified t), which tells ebib that the
database was modified.

Aloha all,
I'm learning to use ebib productively and enjoying it. Thanks to Joost
for a wonderful piece of software.
I use ebib in Org-mode sometimes where the citation commands I use are
Org-mode links, rather than LaTeX commands. I'm wondering if it is
possible to turn off the automatic insertion of \ with
ebib-insert-bibtex-key? It would be great to be able to configure ebib
so it would enter something like [[cite:bibtex-key][123]], instead of
\cite[123]{bibtex-key}.
All the best,
Tom

I've just pushed a quick hack that should do this. It's not configurable, but at
least if you push to an org-mode buffer, Ebib now creates an org link rather
than a LaTeX command. It takes the form of [[cite:bibtex-key][123]] if you
provide an optional argument (only one optional argument is supported). If you
don't provide an optional argument, the link form is
[[cite:bibtex-key][bibtex-key]] (which is actually the form that I use: I don't
export from org to LaTeX...)
This may only partially do what you want, so I'd appreciate suggestions for
improvement. However, since I'm leaving on holiday tomorrow, you may have to
wait a couple of weeks until I have time to implement them. :-)

Aloha Joost,
Nice! I'll work happily with this while you're away on vacation and if
I have suggestions for improvement I'll forward them in a couple of
weeks.
All the best,
Tom

Aloha Joost,
This works very nicely for me. At first, I worked around the default by
entering a space and then deleting [ ] in the org-mode buffer. Then, I
redefined my citation link types to parse a semi-colon separated list of
2 items corresponding to the prenote and postnote optional arguments to
the biblatex command. In this version, entering just the ; separator is
equivalent to an link without a description, so I have a very convenient
path to any result I want.
BTW, the export capability of ebib is extremely handy in my work. It
allows me to create a custom bib file as I work on a document.
Thanks again,
Tom

Hi Petr,

The multiline edit buffer was changed to a minor mode, so that the key bindings
had to be changed as well. The relevant key bindings are now C-c | q (save and
quit), C-c | s (save) and C-c | c (cancel edit). I admit they're a bit
cumbersome, but because mulitline-edit-mode is a minor mode, there isn't much I
can do about it, since minor modes are only allowed to use key bindings that
start with C-c plus some non-alphabetic character. You can, however, redefine
the second character of the key sequences by putting something like the
following into your .emacs:
(ebib-key multiline "&")
This changes the key bindings to C-c & q, C-c & s and C-c & c, respectively. You
can also choose some letter, if you prefer that.
All of this is described in the manual, by the way, although I should update the
version that appears on the website...

Hello.,
new user looking to tryout ebib. I found that git repository doesn't
contain texinfo source file, although downloaded from the release has
the info file.
my intention to install ebib through el-get[1]. el-get automates the
installation and make info from git repository.
