Re: [Bibdesk-users] Duplicates

2007-11-03 Thread Alex Hamann
It seems my answer was a little premature (as Adrian pointed out in  
an email to me yesterday).  The solution I provided does indeed  
select all duplicates but is not good to just delete the second copy.  
Now I am bringing this back since I may run into a similar situation  
pretty soon. Has anybody found an easy way to delete only the copies  
but leaving one entry in place?

 Hello,

 I would like to consolidate a large number of different .bib files.
 If I import all of them into a single BibDesk file, then I have many,
 many duplicates.  Is there a way of removing all duplicates in one  
 go?

 Thanks.

 AFAIK there is not simple way to automatically remove duplicates. The
 problem is that duplicate entries are not necessarily identical
 entries, so a decision has to be made as to which of the duplicates

 from making a random choice). So the easiest is to put the selected
 duplicates in a temporary (static) group and delete duplicates
 manually. Make sure you use Option-Delete to delete the items,
 otherwise they are merely deleted from the group. If you sort by an
 appropriate column it should not be too hard to identify the
 duplicates.

 Hi,

 just as a question/suggestion: would it not be possible to let the
 select duplicates command (or a new similar command) *display* all
 duplicates (like a filter) but *select* all duplicate copies except
 for one by default? Then, if the user does not care for the problem
 you mentioned, removing duplicates would amount to choosing this
 command and hitting delete.

 Best regards
 Holger

Displaying: no, as there is no UI reason why items are not displayed  
(and to reverse that). But what we can do is show a sheet and let the  
user decide how duplicates are selected.

[Bibdesk-users] votes on 1.3.11?

2007-11-03 Thread Adam R. Maxwell
We're about due for another release.  Any problems with recent nightly  
builds?

The major new feature is Christiaan's template editor; hopefully  
people have exercised that a bit on Tiger and Leopard.

As of yesterday, we have a new version of the Omni frameworks, so  
things need some general testing as well.

thanks,
Adam

 Good point.  I can add a check for that in the code that checks to

 if the input manager needs an update.

 Okay, this is checked in for the next nightly.

 For the curious, full release notes are available at

That's over 3 weeks old, which is pretty ancient for a nightly build!

I have yet to put it in subversion, but it can be bundled in the app  
just like the Spotlight plugin (no install).  I'll look into that.

 Also, what happened to the new drag-n-drop file interface that was
 discussed a little while ago?

We're working on it in our copious free time ;).  It's partially  
functional in a subversion branch, but there are some alias/path  
issues to work out.

It works for me, and I traded screenshots with Peter offlist.  His URL  
is shorter.  What happens if you use

http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=sediment+transport+modelinghl=enlr=btnG=Search

in the URL field?

 Um, ok, it works, as did the rest of the searches I tried before.

 Sorry for the distraction.

 I have no idea what happened.

 This works really well and it's a great thing.


Next question: I do a search, and I am looking at a google scholar  
search page in the upper part of the window, and the scraped-off  
bibtex records in the bottom part. Then, I go to the next page of the  
search by selecting the 2 at the bottom of the page for page 2 of  
the search. But the BibTeX at the bottom of the window stays the same.  
How do I get the new references on page 2?

I notice that it takes a really long time (30 secs or so at least) to  
load up the second page; the reload arrow to the right of the url  
field is an X for a while. Does this reflect BibDesk's scraping  
action, and is maybe why the new references aren't appearing?

Another suggestion: Can there be web groups in the same way that there  
are Z30.50 search groups? Instead of entering a url into the field, I  
enter a search key in google scholar; then the url shows up and I pick  
up references by moving around through the pages.

What do you mean by BibTeX?  I see the usual publications table and  
whatever preview I've selected.  The new references should be  
automatically loaded up, and they are in my test here.

There's also a spinner in the group table.  How many results are you  
showing at once?  With 10 results per page here, the next page loads  
almost instantaneously.

 are Z30.50 search groups? Instead of entering a url into the field, I
 enter a search key in google scholar; then the url shows up and I pick

Right now there's a single web group, and I don't know if this would  
be possible; I think it would require crafting the URLs for each site  
(if I understand what you're asking).  There are still some UI  
questions open on this feature, too.

 The Google Scholar scraper would fail to load an entire page if it
 encountered a single bad reference, but this should be fixed for the
 next nightly build.  Hopefully that fixes the random load failures
 we've seen with it.

The web group, now works here.  I had to quit and restart BibDesk but
it now works perfectly.  Google scholar loads quickly and changes the
references here.  Thanks for the quick response.

I'll download the next nightly and continue testing.
