If I change the code now for the dotless scheme, all the people that currently use bibtopic will need to change their files, and when lyx have a proper (i.e GUI) support for bibtopic, they will need to do another change (since I will use the dotted scheme then). > But there was an argument for using this (from Dekel). The only reason the default naming scheme of bibtopic is dotless, is because of bad OS that couldn't deal with proper filenames. > We could have of course a "use bibtopic" checkbox somewhere (in the > citation dialog or in the Document->Extra dialog) which inserts the > correct line. No, I don't want to do that. How about adding a small example of bibtopic usage to lib/examples/ ?
