I think the only way is to use "LaTeX" encoding (in the "File Settings"
widget)

Good luck with that. I contributed some (biblatex-related) patches to
this project, but it ended in frustration (the project manager
eventually removed all of it again without even discussing with
anybody). Now I have to maintain a fork in order to keep those
features.

kbibtex Issue

2019-01-17 Thread Richard Kimberly Heck
I have tried to find some other place to ask questions about kbibtex,
but have struck out, so if anyone knows

I've grown frustrated with JabRef, due to display problems on different
systems, and so am looking for a new bibliography manager. I've found
kbibtex quite useful, but now I've found a real annoyance: It seems to
`translate' such LaTeX constucts as --, \'a, etc, to –, á, etc, which
breaks the compilation of some of my documents (and was a total hassle
to revert). So far as I can tell, there is no option to turn this off,
but maybe I'm missing it? It seems a very strange thing to do by default.

If there isn't an option to suppress this, I may try to create a patch
