I thought I would see if the short-title bug had been fixed in version 3.5 or the 3.6 snapshot. Unfortunately it appears to still be broken.
My bibkey generator is "[auth][year:(unk)][shorttitle:abbr:upper]" it worked as expected up through JabRef-2.10b2, but was broken after the final release. For the example: Abarbanel, H. D.; Rulkov, N. F. & Sushchik, M. M. Generalized synchronization of chaos: The auxiliary system approach Physical Review E, APS, 1996, 53, 4528 The documentation "shorttitle" should use the first three words of the title, and generates a bibkey of: Abarbanel1996Generalizedsynchronizationchaos Further adding "abbr" should abbreviate the first three words, but gives Abarbanel1996G which implies that "abbr" is abbreviating the concatenated string "Generalizedsynchronizationchaos". If I run "[auth][year:(unk)][abbr]" it returns: Abarbanel1996 which imples that "abbr" is broken. I would have expected Abarbanel1996GsocTasa or something similar (since there is a ':' in the name, but I filter that out). Hope this helps, but for now I will continue to recode all my keys by hand to keep consistency. If anyone can fix this, that would be great.
