Dear BibDesk users,

Till now, I was using BibDesk to manage my bibliography database, annotate
it, link with the pdf, and this is just great ! Can't remember how I did
before??? (the combination with Skim is also great, no need to print all
papers : comments in BibDesk and highlights in the paper with Skim). And
then, generate the bibliography for a paper.
But I am using LaTeX with the "thebibliography" environment. I would like to
be able to choose the fields for the "bibitem" command. In particular, I
added the "doi" field by default for all my paper "cards" and I would like
to export it in the bibitem command. I also would like the field "author" to
be in this form :
"McCracken, M., A. Maxwell, C. M. Hofman, S. S. Porst, J. Howison, M.
Routley, and S. Spiegel"
(with firstname of the first author in the "lastname, firstname" format
while other author names are in "firstname lastname" order).

To do that, I created my own tex template for articles :

<$publications>
\bibitem[<???>]{<$citeKey/>}
\textbf{<[EMAIL PROTECTED]/>}
(<$fields.Year/>).
<$fields.Title/>,
\textit{<$fields.Journal.stringByRemovingTeX/>},
\textbf{<$fields.Volume/>}<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>(<$fields.Number/>)</[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]>:<$fields.Pages/><[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
doi:<$fields.Doi/></[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

</$publications>

But the DOI field is just ignored, and I also have a problem for the
parameter in the bibitem command  (\bibitem[<????>], I can't generate what I
want : an author-year citation form). And I can't export the author names in
the format I would like (sure I could do it by hand... but knowing me, this
would be a way to generate a lot of mistakes !).

Is there a way to solve this? What did I miss?

Many thanks in advance and thank you so much to the developers,

Julie
