Moving this to the bibdesk list from the Skim list.

Hi, I support this idea! What about converting the keywords one
applies to Bibdesk-items into openmeta-tags (I mean in addition)
Thanks, Rolf
I'd indeed say this is more a feature for a manager like BibDesk than
for Skim, given the problems I sketched on the Skim list. But I'm not
sure what support one would like in BibDesk. Certainly no automatic
conversion to/from bibtex fields. But it makes sense to add support in
AppleScript for OpenMeta tags. Then the user can do whatever he or she
likes, such as copying tags to keywords or keywords to tags, possibly
in a script hook to automate it. The tags could also be displayed in
the notes view below the Skim notes.

The developers behind Yep & Leap (two excellent apps for tagging/
organzing PDFs and other files) have released an open source
tagging framework for Mac based on extended attributes called Open
Meta. I believe this solves many of the problems inherent in the
various tagging applications on the Mac. As a heavy user of both
Yep and Skim, I would *love* to see Skim add integrated support for
Open Meta tags. The ability to view tags as well as modify them in
Skim would be helpful. This could be accomplished with applescripts
from Skim but an integrated approach would be much nicer and the
fact that they use extended attributes should play nicely with
Skim's architecture. The code is available and is released under
Apache license. Any thoughts?
