CiteInPages is a package of Applescripts and BibDesk templates that allow the use of BibDesk as an integrated reference manager with Apple's Pages (v. 3) word processor, providing insertion of in-text working citations while a manuscript is edited, and replacement of working citations with final formatted in-text citations and insertion of a formatted bibliography list when editing is complete. Numbered and author-date reference styles are supported.
Version 0.99 adds the ability to automatically paste styled bibliographies into Pages, based on BibDesk rtf templates. Two rtf templates are supplied in the package, one that implements the AMA (modified Vancouver) style for numbered references and one that implements the APA style for author-date references. Though neither is exhaustively comprehensive, both provide reasonable coverage of a list of common hard copy and electronic reference types, plus a generic default. With this release, I believe CiteInPages is feature-complete. Future work will primarily involve refactoring for better speed (OK, decreased slowness), hopefully the removal of some workarounds if Applescript/Pages bugs are fixed, debugging of the scripts and templates, and further development of templates. The package is freely available under a BSD license at http://jhh.med.virginia.edu/main/CiteInPages Bug reports and comments/suggestions are welcome.
