A few problems....

Jon I'm having two problems:

1) I continue to add to my own SBL journal glossary which I store in the custom journal glossary folder. It appears in the Utilities menu, but when I open to edit, nothing is there, and typin in the abbrev. names in the journal field is not being recognized. Should I just not bother using the custom journal glossary folder?

2) In the BibTex preferences both the 'append to lowercase' and 'warn' function for the unique ID is not working. I manually entered several works with the same author and date, and when using the shortcut key to genereate the BibTex key, it placed identical BibTex keys in each reference. Thanks

No, you should use this folder. I have your glossary there on my Mac, I have edited it (for testing) and it saves and restores fine. Please send me the glossary that is "empty" -- I'd like to look at it. Any clue as to why this might happened (e.g. a crash during a save), or was it just unexpectedly empty when you opened it?

Yes, I see this. Odd, it certainly worked the last time I tested it. But now it seems there's an error in a particular REGEX search. OK, fixed. You'll see this in 8.0.2.

Thanks for the report, Danny.
