OK, I now have access to the bibliography files that I have <unsuccessfully> trying to import to pybliograher and the sixpack bibliography app. The errors occuring are the same for both. When I get a database to "import", it doesn't disply anything. Here is the format I export using what is supposed to be bibtex format: Author="Abbotts, J. and Bebenek, K. and Kunkel, T.A. and Wilson, S.H.", Title="Mechanism of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. Termination of processive synthesis on a natural DNA template is influenced by the sequence of the template-primer stem", Journal="J. Biol. Chem.", Volume=268, Pages="10312-10323", Year=1993} Author="Adachi, A. and Gendelman, H.E. and Koenig, S. and Folks, T. and Willey, R. and Rabson, A. and Martin, M.A.", Title="Production of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-associated retrovirus in human and nonhuman cells transfected with an infectious molecular clone", Journal="J. Virol.", Volume=59, Pages="284-291", Year=1986} I have also tried to import the endnote format directly with refer as the import filter (with sixpack I have also selected the "endnote" option for import): Weisman1988y& Weiss1973¿ Weiss1984z Weiss1984 Weiss1986{ Weiss1993| Weiss1996+ Weissman n1976Weitsman1990, Westervelt1990Whitcomb1990Whitcomb19914 Wilhelm1995ohittier19909J White1984´ Whitehorn1985V Williams1992Williams1992Williams1993Williams19977 Wilson19 Wills1995 Wilson1995?8 Wilson19999r Wingfield1993q Wisniewski19966s Wisniewski19977t Wisniewski19988?

Wong-Staal1985Ò What a mess. It is impossible to even get it to display partially on the terminal window with a "cat <databasename> |more" It just scrolls off the screen faster than you can read and wont stop (the more switch doesn't work). I have to ctrl-c to stop it. I have also tried exporting the endnote database to refer format. It looks no different than the supposed bibtex output. It doesn't import either. It looks simple enough, with clear fields labeled author, title, etc. Why should this SIMPLE format be impossible to handle? What format is it if it isn't bibtex or refer? praedor |
