Not yet. I take that as a feature request. Just so that the issue is tracked somewhere, would you be willing to file a new issue at http://bitbucket.org/mvngu/pubparse/? > Would it be acceptable to have a separate page, like say: > > http://www.sagemath.org/library-publications-sage-combinat.html That sounds reasonable to me. Do you want to stick with that name or something shorter like this? http://www.sagemath.org/library-sage-combinat.html > Our bibtex file will be publicly accessible via hg.

Given a URL to the sage-combinat team's BibTeX repository, the publications parser could be modified to pull changes from there, and does its job of updating the publications page for sage-combinat. This might require the help of some code that converts the BibTeX file of sage-combinat to pubparse's database format. Even so, I imagine that most if not all of the publication entries in the generated HTML page won't be linked to online preprints or where one could download the papers. One could get around that by using the BibTeX field note = {<a-valid-URL>}, When I first started re-organizing the publications page, my parsing skills were very bad. I didn't want to implement something that parses a BibTeX file. Since you raised the issue of parsing BibTeX files, I think it's time for me to rethink the problem of automatically updating the publications page(s). -- Regards Minh Van Nguyen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-combinat-devel" group.
