Yes, as I suspected it was the URLs (although it does load in my Scrivener). Anyway I've added proper URL encoding and I've used xmllint tool to verify the XML is now compliant. I've also added some user options at the top: --User Options--------------------------------------------------------------...

Dear Asaf, Yes, it is possible that the DOI or URL contains unescaped characters that are invalid for OPML files. I've not had any problems so far. In other languages it is easy to fix, but applescript is generally terrible and has few native functions to help in these sorts of tasks. I tried using ...

OK will give that a go, at least having the names means we can say what, and how many, the attachments are, even if we may not easily get their path. Again, this isn't major, but something to consider for a wishlist for future additions to Bookends very useful applescript support. While we're on the...

Yes for me that would be fine, I suppose it would be good to be able to write a script others could use without requiring them to also install a new format? This was actually inspired by the OPML script Dave83 wrote, I wanted to add links to the PDF if present and make it so others could use it.

No, I use the Bookends keywords. They are embedded in within the notes and preceded with the percent sign (%). Hm, my BE keywords are not included in the OPML output, and I can't see how they are processed? Do you manually add them to your notes or how does the OPML script do this? Thanks for the i...

Hi Jon, it would be neat if we could get get the attachment path using applescript, i.e. a new event: «event ToySGETA» uniqueID would return the path[s] of any attachments ref:uniqueID had.

One small update: if you use "
" (newline in XML) you will get line feeds that formats things better in Scrivener. e.g. set ref_text to opml_outline & ref_author & ", " & ref_date & " (ID:" & ref_nbr & ")\"" & ¬ opml_no...

Dave, actually I think it is fine to use the default temporary citation format as part of the output OPML — I thought your original code was parsing the cite_key_components (original line ~154) taken from the clipboard temporary citations to first author/year, and this was broken when I tried to use...

Dear Dave, this is now working for me. I'm also completely happy that you use the default temporary citation as part of the content: I misunderstood your first script code and as it was not working for me thought you were using it to extract the first author and year from. I can do my own post proce...

Hi, actually I am the user over on the Scrivener forum. I use an automated Pandoc workflow[1] with Scrivener so my temporary citations are of the form [@user1]. User1 is set as the BibTeX key. I tried running the OPML export script and it failed to give any authors or dates: <outline text="No A...

I assume we have to use Safari so a cookie is set that BE's browser can read? Does it matter if we are logged into our Google account or not?

OK so the fix case script still offers some useful functionality (more general in what can be protected, and preserve+enforce lists) not available within the bookends export...

I can work round it by just removing that field in my customised bibtex filter (all my refs have a title field), so if this isn't an issue for most users, as long as I wasn't missing something, no big deal...

Hi, in the BibTeX format for conference proceedings, there is: title = $`{`t`}`, $ booktitle = $`{`s`}`, $ My short title field is empty, and I thus assumed that I should get an empty booktitle: title = {My long title} booktitle = {} but it seems if it is empty, s gets duplicated with t: title = {My...

OK I was using UTF-8. This is quite a confusing setting, as I can output RIS format using a BiBTeX "format", and the BiBTeX output is actually UTF-8 encoded! What is the BibTeX "encoding" actually doing that isn't just UTF-8 + the settings from Preferences? And although now {2D} ...
