That has happened to me more than once. That is why I always open up the .bib file in an emacs window, edit it, and save. If I blow stuff away I can then recover in emacs by resaving. This is a fragile workaround. This is one of the primary reasons I basically use jabref for little more than generating keys and searching my bib file(s). I would love to short circuit this problem somehow. If you come up with a solution we would have to discuss hot to make sure it is not overwritten with an update (maybe in an rc/init file?).

Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
