New development: on Ubuntu 9.04, bibtool will crash while trying to process the file I attached to illustrate the problem.
Right, I missed the part of the documentation which says that bibtool won't work with code points greater than 127 but I'd expect a tool which has this limitation to do something like: if char > 127, then fail graciously by printing an error message and exiting with a non-zero status Unfortunately, the current behavior is undetermined. As for supporting other encodings, I would suggest supporting Unicode (in addition to what is currently supported) but not other encodings: one can always use tools like recode to convert to Unicode, then process the file with bibtool and then use recode again to convert to whatever encoding the user desires. (BTW, using recode to convert a Unicode BibTeX file to LaTeX encoding (e.g. recode utf8..latex biblio.bib) does not produce good results.) -- bibtool does not convert accented characters to lowercase https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209872 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
