Aloha all,
I'm trying, partially successfully, to configure org-bibtex so it mimics
some useful features of ebib. In particular, I'm wanting to add several
optional fields that ebib uses.
I have this in .emacs:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle yes
(dolist (type org-bibtex-types)
(push :url (cdr (assoc :optional (cdr type))))
(push :annote (cdr (assoc :optional (cdr type))))
(push :abstract (cdr (assoc :optional (cdr type))))
(push :keywords (cdr (assoc :optional (cdr type))))
(push :file (cdr (assoc :optional (cdr type))))
)
(push (cons :url "A URL for the reference") org-bibtex-fields)
(push (cons :annote "Annotation is typically not exported") org-bibtex-fields)
(push (cons :abstract "Abstract for annotated bibliography")
org-bibtex-fields)
(push (cons :keywords "Keywords for sorting with ebib") org-bibtex-fields)
(push (cons :file "A local file path used by ebib to open the
reference in an appropriate application") org-bibtex-fields)
#+end_src
Most of it works fine, but the optional :file field doesn't respect its
argument. So, the following entry in the Org-mode file:
** Active Documents with Org-mode
:PROPERTIES:
:TITLE: Active Documents with Org-mode
:TYPE: article
:AUTHOR: Eric Schulte and Dan Davison
:JOURNAL: Computing in Science and Engineering
:YEAR: 2011
:VOLUME: 13
:NUMBER: 3
:PAGES: 2--9
:MONTH: May/June
:URL: http://www.cs.unm.edu/~eschulte/data/CISE-13-3-SciProg.pdf
:FILE: Schulte-Davison-Babel.pdf
:CUSTOM_ID: schulte11:_activ_docum_org
:END:
is exported with org-bibtex like this:
@article{schulte11:_activ_docum_org,
author = {Eric Schulte and Dan Davison},
title = {Active Documents with Org-mode},
journal = {Computing in Science and Engineering},
year = 2011,
file = {/Users/dk/Public/projects/916-rr/rr.org},
url =
{http://www.cs.unm.edu/~eschulte/data/CISE-13-3-SciProg.pdf},
volume = 13,
number = 3,
pages = {2--9},
month = {May/June}
}
Pressing f in ebib now just takes me back to the Org-mode file, rather
than launching a pdf reader on my local copy of the article.
Any ideas how I can achieve my goal?
All the best,
Tom
