external search in ebib?

Hi ebib list.
I try to develop a way to annotate my articles using doc-view, ebib and
org-mode  capture templates. I have little experience in elisp and 
shamelessly ask if someone can develop a function (of show the way for
it). The function should run from emacs search in a pre-loaded  ebib
database by one bibtex field (file in my case ) and return bibkey (or
other field) of corresponding record.  I hope it is not complex thing to
do.
Thanks.
Petro

feature request: searching online databases

Certain bibliography managers e.g. jabref (which I couldn't get to work)
promise a capability to search through online sources e.g. ACM Digital
Library, Citeseer, Google Scholar, etc. for bibliographic information.

Is there any plan to implement a similar feature in ebib? If not, do you
think it would be worth trying? I know some Emacs Lisp, but nothing
about its network programming aspect.

Thanks,
Mandar.

how to edit the key?

Hi,

Recently discovered ebib, and it looks great! Since I'm a new user, I'm
still using a mix of ebib and editing the raw bib file. I'm wondering if
there's any way to edit the key itself via ebib. A quick look in the
manual didn't yield anything.

This leads me to the next question. Suppose I change the key (or make
some other edit) directly in the .bib file. Can I get ebib to reload 
the data without quitting and restarting?

Thanks,
mandar.

ebib unstable 57f8af86d3 fails on 'ebib-edit-field'

Hi Joost

As far as I can tell the current 'git' version is
buggy and fails when editing fields, on function
'ebib-edit-field'.

Probably easier if you fix it, than me.

Also, should this kind of traffic go thru the users
list or direct to you?

cheers, Robbie

searching across multiple real databases

Hello Joost and list

This posting relates to searching across multiple
databases.  Unless I have misread the
documentation badly (always a possibility), basic
emacs-based searches and advanced searching
(resulting in virtual databases) are only
possible within the one database.  Is this
correct?

I would like to work across six BibTeX files.

It so, there are two possible fixes: concatenate
the BibTeX files beforehand.  Or offer users a
'super' database, a union of the existing real
databases.  Call it super, logical, or virtual, as
you like.  In fact, 'logical' has some merits.

Anyway, I hacked a bit of 'ebib.el' to try and get
something happening.  The following patch FAILS to
work, but did run.  You should get the drift,
anyhow.

My questions are two-fold:

   * is this functionality needed ?
   * is this functionality possible ?

It yes to both, I may go on hacking.  Else, I will

'ebib-file-search-dirs' documentation suggestion

Hello Joost, others

I just spent a bit of time trying to get 'ebib' to read
my BibTeX files.  You'll see why shortly.

With regard to the following documentation:

  File Search Dirs

  Default value: ~.

  List of directories that Ebib searches for
  files. Note that searching is not recursive: only the
  files listed here are searched, not their
  subdirectories.

I took this to mean BibTeX files and duly set up the
following:

  (setq ebib-file-search-dirs
        "~/path/to/bib/files")
  (setq ebib-preload-bib-files
        (list "1.bib"
              "2.bib"))

This failed and after reading 'ebib.el' I can see why.
For the record, what is needed is this:

  (setq ebib-preload-bib-files

Re: No valid filename found in field 'file'

Hi Jeffrey,

I'm on vacation right now, so I can't help you on the regexp itself, but you can customize the variable
ebib-file-regexp (our something to that effect) to get the filename to be recognized. It could be,
though, that the problem is in the file path that is sent to the external program. In that case, I may be able
to add the ability to chop off some part of the filename. But I won't be able to get to that for a few weeks.

Same goes for your other question, I won't be able to answer it until I get back home...

Best,

Joost

Subject: [Ebib-users] No valid filename found in field 'file'

I just installed ebib and linked it with org-mode. I have it working great but I can't seem to get the files to
open. I also use mendeley or previously did but might convert over. This is typically how my files are
formatted in my bib (shown below). I get the error in the subject line that no valid filename found in field
'file'. Is there a way to get ebib to recognize the file format setup like this because all my files are setup
in this manner
