Also, if there was any thought of including my preview template in BibDesk, I'd want to do a little work on it, perhaps with some help from someone who is deeply knowledgeable about templates. It works well for me now, but there are couple of lesser-used bibliography types that I think could be covered better, and I'm not sure that I am using conditional punctuation optimally in all cases. If it becomes more widely used and anyone has any problems, please feel free to let me know (especially if you know how to fix it!) and I'll try to make improvements.
