I'll try to answer this before Christiaan gets to it: First, select the web group that appears automatically in the left- side "groups pane" in the main view. You'll see a window open up with a space for a URL above it, and a window area for bib citations below it.
Second, go to the spires site by entering in its url: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/spires/ Third, conduct a search in the site. When the results appear, records will appear in the window area for bib citations. Click "import" to import them. It works, I just tried it with the most recent nightly build. Add the spires address as a bookmark. -Adam On May 28, 2008, at 2:43 PM, Steuard Jensen wrote: > Christiaan Hofman wrote: >> Another hint: the latest nightly have support for Spires in the Web >> group. >> Just search in Spires, and the matches will be ready for one-click >> import. > > Ooooh, easy built-in import from Spires will be fantastic.
