Re: Literature documentation software

[Micha Feigin]

There is jabref which is a bibtex management program and can probably be abused for your purpose - i.e you can use the review entry for your notes I like using docear, which is a scientific oriented mindmap program with strong support for paper management. Personally I use it under windows along with acrobat pro to make notes in the paper, it then can automatically find documents in given directories and extract all notes from the papers. I don't know if there is a linux supported pdf markup program that will work with it as well, I think that the KDE one or something like that should work (they have notes on their site. Both of these are written in java so work under linux (acrobat pro unfortunately has no linux version and I couldn't run it under wine either).

I would like to do it electronically, in an organized fashion, so I can also search and retrieve information later on. Right now, I print the articles, read and mark important parts, and then write up the content in a text document. My ideal program would have fields for the article name, source (journal, web address, etc.), authors, link to original article (i.e. the pdf file I will save or either a link or a copy of the web page in case of an html page) and summary/comments which I will enter. There should be some searchable record keeping system, where all the articles will be listed and be searchable by field (say, all articles from Washington Post, or Lancet, etc.). If it is online, it would be nice to be able to share access to a document. Can you recommend a program that does that, on Linux or online?   Thanks, Z. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
