[Jabref-users] Appending entries from my web browser to the currently opened database
http://jabref.sourceforge.net/faq.php Q: Is it possible to append entries from a BibTeX file, e.g. from my web browser, to the currently opened database? A: Yes, in the upcoming version, you can use the parameter --importToOpen bibfile. I have changed JabRef shortcut target from C:\Program Files (x86)\JabRef\JabRef.exe --importToOpen bibfile to C:\Program Files (x86)\JabRef\JabRef.exe --importToOpen bibfile and restarted JabRef. Still entries open in current window in a new database, unlike what the FAQ suggests; the built-in help and the online documentation has no further hints how to use parameters... In Task Manager (Windows 7), the entry shows like this (bar slashes in wrong direction and wrong casing; had to type this one manually): c:/program files/java/jre6/bin/javaw.exe -Xms32m -Xmx512m -jar c:/program files/jabref/jabref-2.9.2.jar --importToOpen bibfile If you wanted me to specify full path to the bibfile, that's not what I want, as I may open different database in the first tab of JabRef. I would like you to recycle it, i.e. add to it, when I click 'export' in the web browser.
