Hi!

For a long time I had a look again on papers and it got really nice
but it misses a lot of features for easy work with Bibtex. Is anyone
using on this list Bibdesk in conjunction with Papers (preferable
someone from the social sciences)? If yes, what is your workflow using
those two.

Bibdesk is nice for manage my references (and getting a good bib-file
out of it) and pdfs in the file-system but it is missing the full-text
search over the pdfs like Papers is doing and it gets the whole
web-search thing more nicely done than Bibdesk (like automatically
search for the most recent papers from the selected author or from the
journal and stuff like that) and the interface just looks overall
quite nice.

I wish I would be able to help on Bibdesk and if it would be just for
getting the publication-window look more Addressbook-style (that would
be a feature-request then ;) )
Any ideas where to start if there is nearly no previous experience in
programming (or at least 10 years ago was the last time I had to work
with code except the strange stack-language of bibtex) when one thinks
about helping in improving Bibdesk?

Niels
