Is it possible to word wrap at window edge by default. This is the setting
in all other buffers but not in ebib-entry buffer. I don't like
toggling every time so is there a hook where this can be set every time the
buffer is loaded??

Hi Jeffrey,

I'm on vacation right now, so I can't help you on the regexp itself, but you 
can customize the variable ebib-file-regexp (our something to that effect) to 
get the filename to be recognized. It could be, though, that the problem is in 
the file path that is sent to the external program. In that case, I may be able 
to add the ability to chop off some part of the filename. But I won't be able 
to get to that for a few weeks.

Same goes for your other question, I won't be able to answer it until I get 
back home...

Best,

Joost

Subject: [Ebib-users] No valid filename found in field 'file'

I just installed ebib and linked it with org-mode. I have it working great but 
I can't seem to get the files to open. I also use mendeley or previously did 
but might convert over. This is typically how my files are formatted in my bib 
(shown below). I get the error in the subject line that no valid filename found 
in field 'file'. Is there a way to get ebib to recognize the file format setup 
like this because all my files are setup in this manner

No worries and thanks for the heads up. I will try to get the regexp
working with ebib-file-regexp but not the greatest with figuring out regexp.

Cheers,
Jeff

Hello Joost, others

I just spent a bit of time trying to get 'ebib' to read
my BibTeX files.  You'll see why shortly.

With regard to the following documentation:

  File Search Dirs

  Default value: ~.

  List of directories that Ebib searches for
  files. Note that searching is not recursive: only the
  files listed here are searched, not their
  subdirectories.

I took this to mean BibTeX files and duly set up the
following:

  (setq ebib-file-search-dirs
        "~/path/to/bib/files")
  (setq ebib-preload-bib-files
        (list "1.bib"
              "2.bib"))

This failed and after reading 'ebib.el' I can see why.
For the record, what is needed is this:

  (setq ebib-preload-bib-files
        (list "~/path/to/bib/files/1.bib"
              "~/path/to/bib/files/2.bib"))

Maybe the documentation could emphasis the files
mentioned are files for viewing and not files for
reading.

Many thanks for offering this project.  It suits
my needs well and the code looks beautiful.

Hi Robbie,

Yes, I see how this can be confusing... I'll fix the documentation to make this 
clearer. Or perhaps it would be even better to use ebib-file-search-dirs for 
ebib-preload-bib-files as well...

Best,

Joost

No, probably better to make another variable for
exactly that purpose:

   ebib-preload-bib-search-dirs

Regarding customization more generally, I prefer to use
'setq' rather than the 'Custom' interface.  Would it be
better to document the hand-coded equivalents for these
settings as well?  Just a thought though, I do not have
strong views on this.

warm regards, Robbie

ps: I have a couple of other questions and suggestions,
but I'll put these in separate postings.
