I thought I would see if the short-title bug had been fixed in version 
3.5 or the 3.6 snapshot.  Unfortunately it appears to still be broken.

My bibkey generator is "[auth][year:(unk)][shorttitle:abbr:upper]" it 
worked as expected up through JabRef-2.10b2, but was broken after the 
final release.


For the example:

Abarbanel, H. D.; Rulkov, N. F. & Sushchik, M. M. Generalized 
synchronization of chaos: The auxiliary system approach Physical Review 
E, APS, 1996, 53, 4528

The documentation "shorttitle" should use the first three words of the 
title, and generates a bibkey of:

    Abarbanel1996Generalizedsynchronizationchaos

Further adding "abbr" should abbreviate the first three words, but 
gives

    Abarbanel1996G

which implies that "abbr" is abbreviating the concatenated string 
"Generalizedsynchronizationchaos".  If I run "[auth][year:(unk)][abbr]" 
it returns:

    Abarbanel1996

which imples that "abbr" is broken.  I would have expected

    Abarbanel1996GsocTasa

or something similar (since there is a ':' in the name, but I filter 
that out).

Hope this helps, but for now I will continue to recode all my keys by 
hand to keep consistency.  If anyone can fix this, that would be great.

   Thanks and best regards,

   EBo --
