Just some little queries.....
I have been trying to consolidate all my bib files into one big file,
which is going well. However, I run into trouble when I encounter
another reference with the same citekey, probably the same paper, but
possibly with slightly different information, e.g. DOI, or abstract
included. When the citekey flashes up red, it would be nice to click a
button to show the offending alternative citation, so that the
conflict can be resolved. Otherwise, I have to find it manually in the
main database, open it manually and choose one. Also, if I could at
that point discard the new import, rather than have to delete it from
the database, that would also be nice.
Alternatively, if the citekey could show up red in the main database
view, or with a "duplicate citekey" flag somewhere in the database,
then I could just drag and drop all the citations from one database to
another, then click to find duplicate citekeys, and then go through
and resolve all the conflicts. As it is, I have to do a few at a time.
Secondly, when importing citations from PRL, they have their own
citekey format. Is there any way to tell BibDesk to impose the auto
citekey format on imported citations? Likewise, some way to tell
BibDesk to consolidate all linked files into the autofile location, in
case there are some stray linked files which are elsewhere?
Finally, I wrote an rtf template for the preview pane, and wanted the
DOI to show up as a hyperlink, which was clickable, and would open the
paper in the journal browser. This works if I write an html template,
but not with an rtf template. The text shows up as a blue underlined
hyperlink with the link text changed to the correct DOI, but the
underlying link is not resolved and so the link is broken.
e.g. <span class="url"><a href="http://dx.doi.org/<$fields.Doi/>"><
$fields.Doi/></a></span> in an html template gives me the correct
link to the journal, but
<a href="http://dx.doi.org/<$fields.Doi/>"><$fields.Doi/></a> in an
rtf template doesn't.
The link remains http://dx.doi.org/<$fields.Doi>/ rather than
http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.51.17151/
