I would like to encourage users to write/email Niles & Associates, the makers of EndNote bibliography software, and ask that they support linux thru WordPerfect and StarOffice. EndNote is a must for an academic, student of researcher, and is a standard. Though there is bibtex available IF you use Tex/LaTex/Lyx, etc, it just doesn't have the power, nor are these apps accepted as a "standard" (you cannot submit TeX documents to Science, Nature, The Journal of Virology, The of Biochemistry, and so forth, for instance...you get to submit word or wordperfect docs and a limited set of graphics formats - none, unfortunately, derive from available linux graphics software). I use StarOffice, and may use WordPerfect after Corel releases the full suite for linux, but always have to save any docs I write that are intended for professional publication as word documents so I can get it fully word-formatted AND add citations and bibliography using EndNote. It would make either app more usable in itself if EndNote was available for it. A number of my colleagues will not use StarOffice simply because EndNote is not available for it - nor any equivalent package. They couldn't consider linux itself for related reasons...there is WordPerfect and StarOffice, plus a host of gpl alternatives, but they do not have EndNote NOR do they produce documents that could be submitted to the journals I mention above (plus many more). EndNote support would add a great deal of attractiveness to linux and linux office suites.
