Hi! I've tried both Pybliographer and JabRef and I liked them both quite well. But then I had some trouble with both of them, they didn't really let me do everything I wanted, or maybe I didn't have the patience to learn how to do it. And like several others I had problems with non-ascii characters.
So in the end I always ended up using emacs, with its really useful bibtex mode. It works a treat! I can automatically create entries of different types, and it lets me do everything I want. I can't directly insert references into LyX though, but I find the LyX dialog for that fine, so it doesn't bother me at all. /Sara Tim Vaughan wrote: >Hi, > >I plan on using Bibtex to handle the citations needed for a series of >essays I am writing.
