Hi everyone, A while ago I asked on this list about connecting org-mode with ebib, which is a bibtex database manager for emacs. Thanks to Joost Kremers, there is now a solution.
I asked the developer of ebib, Joost Kremers, if he could write a function that would start ebib on a given bibtex entry. He kindly added this functionality to the 'ebib' function (which starts ebib in emacs) and it is now available in the ebib git repository (see http://ebib.sourceforge.net). If you are using ebib and would like to get org-mode to open bibtex entries do the following: 1) Install the latest development version of ebib. 2) make sure ebib-preload-bib-files is set properly so that your .bib file is loaded by ebib when ebib starts 3) add the following lines to your .emacs: (org-add-link-type "ebib" 'ebib) Now you can insert ebib links in your documents like this: [[ebib:Jones1998][some paper title]]. Opening this link should now result in ebib starting, loading your default bibtex database, and highlighting the bibtex entry Jones1998. Alternatively, if you already have started ebib, then opening the link will get you to the bibtex entry in your opened ebib database. /Ali Tofigh _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
