Hi all-
Most of my question seems Bibtex-related, but there's a bit that pertains to
BibDesk. My head's a little turned around on this, and hopefully someone here
could twist it back:
I have a few citations that look like this in Bibdesk's resulting .bib file:
> @book{Veitl:1997ij,
> Address = {Paris},
> Author = {Veitl, Anne},
> Date-Added = {2010-07-18 14:26:47 -0400},
> Date-Modified = {2010-09-14 17:18:20 -0400},
> Keywords = {music history, cultural studies, france},
> Publisher = {Editions L'Harmattan},
> Title = {Politiques de la musique contemporaine: Le compositeur, la
> "recherche musicale" et l'{\'E}tat en France de 1958 {\`a} 1991},
> Year = {1997}}
I'm using XeLaTeX, Biber and BibLaTeX to process my files, and believe I'm
using a complete 8-bit typesetting process. Biber, however, gives me the
following warning:
> ./Primary.bib, line 1369, warning: found " at brace-depth zero in string (TeX
> accents in BibTeX should be inside braces)
So that would be the double quotes around "recherche musicale" in the Title
field.
Is it correct to think that I'm getting this warning because double-quotes are
reserved in Bibtex? It has nothing to do with the character encoding of the
file, right? So I need to represent the double-quotes as two single-quotes: ''
, correct?
I can't determine whether Bibdesk provides some sort of conversion for this. Is
there a setting or technique that will display double-quotes in Bibdesk, but
write two single-quotes in the .bib file?
In inspecting the .bib file, I noticed that Bibdesk has encoded the accented
characters in TeX format: {\'E} and {\`a} in this example. I assume that I
could switch this off in Preferences if I wanted to. Also, if I wanted to
convert my current .bib file, I could switch off the conversion and then
export, correct?
Thanks, and Happy New Year!
Charles
