Hi,
I'm trying to improve my auto-file setup. I was just editing the format
string and BibDesk crashed. I can re-open it, but as soon as I bring up the
Preferences dialog, it crashes again. I have restored the following two
files from backups into ~/Library/Preferences but it still crashes if I try
to open the Pref window: edu.ucsd.cs.mmccrack.bibdesk.LSSharedFileList.plist
edu.ucsd.cs.mmccrack.bibdesk.plist
Any advice how to get BibDesk working again? I can send the log if that
would help.
Secondly, my motivation for editing the format script...
Currently I use(d) this format:
%a11/%a1/%a1_%Y_%T3%n0%e
Which files things here:
~/Documents/Papers/M/McCracken/McCracken_2004_BibDesk, a great
application.pdf
I'd like to make a few improvements to this including:
+ Replace space with "_"
+ Remove comma
I can do the former with I think this updated string (I can't test it for
the above reasons, but I played around with this last night):
%a11/%a1/%a1_%Y_%w{Title}[ ][/][_]3%n0%e
Which I recall generated something like this:
~/Documents/Papers/M/McCracken/McCracken_2004_BibDesk,_a_great.pdf
The issue here is the comma is still annoying for a filename, and the %T3
is more intelligent about the definition of 3 words, while %w{Title}3 is
not as intelligent.
Is there a way to get "%T3" to drop commas? Is there or could there be a
global option for "replace whitespace with underscore" the way there is a
global option for "lowercase"?
Thanks for any help you can provide, especially on the first part - getting
BibDesk working again.
-k.
