[Bibdesk-users] Local-Url field

[FZiegler]

I must admit first that I have stayed at Bibdesk 1.3.12 because I'm 
sharing my .bib file with others who don't want Mac aliases in it. So 
far this hasn't caused problems, but I am beginning to think I should 
get on with the program... So,

1. Main question: is there a simple edit I could make to turn off the 
aliases and stay with the old "Local-Url" method of filing? (I'm willing 
to compile Bibdesk if necessary.)

2. Subsidiary question: while at it, would it be possible for me to 
switch from having, *written in the .bib file* a Local-Url like

file://localhost/Volumes/Home/FZ/Documents/Archive/,   (**)

to something more portable -- i.e., a path relative to the .bib file 
(../../Archive/) or to my home dir (~/Documents/Archive/)? -- 
and only translate to (**) on display? That would ease the process of 
using the same .bib file and archive on a server where I don't control 
~'s parent directories.

Thanks for one of my most-used programs,
Francois Z.

Sounds like a bug in Finder.  Applications do nothing to declare
their bundle size; the Finder computes it dynamically, so there's
nothing to be done as far as I know.

Yes, that's what I thought.  I forced Finder to restart twice, no 
change.  I also reinstalled the package.  Again. no change.

Curious.

[Fischlin Andreas]

This has probably nothing to do with BibDesk but with a missing update of the 
Finder information. You can usually force more uptodate the Finder information 
by closing and reopening the window where you suspect the information is not 
correct.

 Make it as simple as possible, but distrust it!

I also inherited a second copy (in sub folder) of Bibdesk 1.5.4 when I instal

Any ideas?  Bug?

[Bibdesk-users] Odd quirk on Lion - "zero bytes"

[David Nicholls]

I have just installed Bibdesk 1.5.6 on Lion 10.7.2.  In the Finder, the size is 
given as "Zero bytes", but when I use Getinfo, it reports 20.7 Meg.  Why is 
this so?

I also inherited a second copy (in sub folder) of Bibdesk 1.5.4 when I instal 
MacTex.  It shows its size correctly in Finder.  I have not run the second 
version.

Any ideas?  Bug?
