Hi Tierney, I use Zotero to export literature as a biblatex/bibtex library with many items in a .bib file. What would be nice is to have to drop a .bib file into tiddlywiki and after clicking import, a startup module that runs in the background reacts and parses the bibtex and saves the output as tiddlers using the bibtext keys as tiddler titles and the fields as tiddler fields. They text in the bibtex keyword field could be stored as tags in tiddlywiki. Bibtext is very easy to parse so you could write your own parser and put it as a library module into your plugin...
Not sure if you want to achieve this, but that would be my usecase :) and would make a great addition to use tiddlywiki for literature and zotero. -Felix On 09/08/2015 01:11 AM, Tierney Coren wrote: > Hello! > > I've taken on some work using tiddlywiki.
