Hi,
Another good program for Bibtex +
pdf-keeping is BibCompanion (only for OSX,
http://www.surf.nuqe.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~nakahara/Software/BibCompanion/index-e.html).
I use both Jabref and BibCompanion. Jabref can
import from the references database I use in my
research and format the entries. e generated my
reference list, I use BibCompanion to attach the
PDF to my reference, as the program permits to
open a drawer with the paper and consult it. Very
good if you're on writing scientific papers.
Cheers,
Jordi

I use JabRef on Mac OS X, which I chose initially because it
interfaces with LyX. I am mostly happy with it. My two complaints are
the same as Charles de Miramon's: JabRef is a little slow and you
have to get rid of ASCII characters with diacritics in your
bibliography before you convert it to JabRef format, because JabRef
will mangle them.
Tellico is fully UTF-8 and works well with non-English languages. Tellico's
developper, Robby Stephenson is very responsive.
Tellico has a nice feature where you can directly search and import in your
database references from online catalogs (Amazon, Library of Congress and
Libraries catalogs with a z.390 interface).
Tellico has also auto-completion of fields which saves time. The downside of
Tellico is that the internal format is not BibTeX, you have to export at
some point your database in BibTeX and make, if needed, some modifications
in the .bib file. PyBibliographer strong point is that it works with .bib
file and that you can change the subtle stuff inside the application.
Cb2bib is a different kind of application. You have bibliographic references
in free format (on the Web, in a footnote of an article), you paste it in
your clipboard and call cb2bib. It will parse it and try to create a BibTex
entry. Real geeks can even create new regular expressions to parse their
favorite bibliographical database. Nice and original software.
Cheers,
Charles
