Yes, LyX and BibTeX are very useful LaTex based layout and typesetting utilities, but depend on auxiliary and style files--external to the text and markup otherwise performed in a text editor or word processor. Excellent results, but challenging to master. In line citation management "WYSIWYG" function of commercial products (e.g. EndNote or Scholars Aid) or open source projects like Bibus or Zotero meet the majority of use cases with integration into the common word processors (MS Word, OO Writer, LibO Writer). Regards OP's failures with Bibus - IIRC, it has PyUno Python, wxpython and wxWidgets version dependencies for use with OpenOffice/LibreOffice Writer, and it looks as if its development has stalled (last release v1.5 in Oct. 2009). Resolving problems with current OO/LibO releases may require a refresh or rebuild of the Bibus extension. Perhaps review functionality of Zotero as a currently maintained alternative to Bibus that will function with current OO/LibO releases? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Some-documents-make-libreoffice-writer-crash-tp3893517p3897820.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
