Google tells me biblatex supports the IDS field, which effectively lets you specify multiple cite keys for the same bib entry. Is there a way to do this in bibtex with BibDesk, or is the only option to duplicate the bib entry for each alternate cite key? Thanks, David PS. I’m on the digest, so a cc directly to me would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users |

You can add a separate field called IDS, if that's what you need; it won't be treated as a cite key, though. The help book should cover adding default fields pretty well. -- adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users |
Thanks, Adam. I can add default fields without a problem. Just wondering whether there's a way to engineer this in bibtex like you can in biblatex.

Just wondering whether there's a way to engineer this in bibtex like you can in biblatex. Not as far as I know. I'm not sure why you'd want to do that, though, unless your editor doesn't support autocompletion. http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Comp/comp.text.tex/2006-02/msg01379.html http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Comp/comp.text.tex/2006-02/msg01442.html -- adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users |
Adam-
I won't bore you with details, but it boils down to a one-word answer: collaborators. David On Dec 31, 2016, at 4:52 PM, Adam R.
