Thanks. I asked if it was possible to do this through AppleScript because
I'm trying to write an app that will facilitate communication between
BibDesk and Mellel (similar to BibDesk2Word and CiteInPages, but Mellel
isn't scriptable, so it's a bit trickier). One piece of information Mellel
wants from a bibliographic app is the Endnote XML for each citation. So it
would be handy to be able to get that data with AppleScript.
Is it feasible to use a template to generate Endnote XML? Or is it possible
to change BibDesk so that the formats available through File-->Export are
available to AppleScript? Another option is to put the Mellel stuff in
BibDesk itself, but I think this is undesirable because 1) the Mellel code
provides no benefit to non-Mellel users and 2) Mellel expects to communicate
with an app whose creator code is BERB (using AppleEvents), so this would
require changing BibDesk's creator code.
