Hi, I've completed a beta version of pyblio with support for web of knowledge. The new version uses the new code from the 1.3 branch, which means: - the UI does not freeze during queries - it is possible to interrupt queries Instead of fetching the results in a new pyblio window, a separate window is opened, and users can navigate the entries, picking up the ones of interest. See http://pybliographer.org/Roadmap_for_1.3/Integration_in_baseline for screenshots. Feel free to try the code, available in go...@py...--2007/pyblio--legacy--1.3 (available from ftp://arch.pybliographer.org/archives/2007). Please note this requires a working install of pyblio 1.3 (see http://pybliographer.org/Development/1.3). I'm definitely interested in feedback regarding: - the UI - conversion from the external database to BibTeX. This is not yet complete, so feel free to send me queries for which the conversion is not satisfactory. Cheers, --=20 Fr=E9d=E9ric |

At the moment I can test only medline queries, WOK search gives an error=20 popup window.=20 In the query window I miss the "search limited to" entry. It might be=20 useful. If I limit the search like 'Publication date From: 2004 To: 2007" I get=20 results from "2004/12/31:2007/12/31". It should be 2004/01/01:... ! In the results window: wouldn't be nice to show journal parameters as=20 well (journal, vol, pages, year)? Now, double-clicking on an entry adds it into the pyblio window.=20 If I want to select more or all entries I should do it one by one?=20 Would be nice to have the possibility of selecting all or some, and add=20 them together. Saving into bibtex works till now. One issue: "40% decrease" saved as "40\char37 decrease" in the bibtex=20 file, and then when I click on the entry: "pybliographer: warning: unable= =20 to convert `\char'" Keys are like "12213965". They are from medline or generated on demand? Zoltan |

Hmm, what are you referring to exactly? doesn't the advanced search provide the same filters as previously? > If I limit the search like 'Publication date From: 2004 To: 2007" I get > results from "2004/12/31:2007/12/31". It should be 2004/01/01:... ! Fixed. > In the results window: wouldn't be nice to show journal parameters as > well (journal, vol, pages, year)? Yeah I need to complete the conversions I think. Will check. > Now, double-clicking on an entry adds it into the pyblio window. > If I want to select more or all entries I should do it one by one? > Would be nice to have the possibility of selecting all or some, and add > them together. It's the whole interaction I'm uncertain right now. What's your common usage pattern? how many new articles do you add to your bibliography for a query? > Saving into bibtex works till now. > One issue: "40% decrease" saved as "40\char37 decrease" in the bibtex > file, and then when I click on the entry: "pybliographer: warning: unable > to convert `\char'" I guess it's pybliographer that needs to learn about this syntax, I think it's correct. > Keys are like "12213965". They are from medline or generated on demand? This is the medline key, yes. --=20 Fr=E9d=E9ric |

Check the 1.2 ui:=20 The first filter left from '[]Only items with abstracts' (containing=20 options like 'All Fields', 'Affiliation', 'Author Name',...) is missing=20 from the new UI. > > Now, double-clicking on an entry adds it into the pyblio window. > > If I want to select more or all entries I should do it one by one? > > Would be nice to have the possibility of selecting all or some, and add > > them together. >=20 > It's the whole interaction I'm uncertain right now.

Hm, sometimes I just make a query and I save some or all of the entries=20 in a temporary file. At any time later I can check them thoroughly=20 (download the full paper) and decide which entries should be added to my=20 bibliography.=20 Zoltan |
