I've always had the same impression: most of us use LaTeX, although I now know of at least four on this list who don't. Some people avoid BD because of the BibTeX/LaTeX association, but I think it's useful as a general purpose reference manager because of the searching/ranking/grouping/filing features, and we shouldn't forget that. I think the UI is better than most of the other tools as well. -- adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
