3 * ebib.el (ebib-marked-face): turned into a customisable option.
4 (ebib-fill-index-buffer): modified to use ebib-marked-face as a
5 face, rather than a variable.
6 (ebib-mark-entry): same.
8 2007-10-29 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
10 * ebib.el (ebib-fill-index-buffer): changed mapcar to mapc
11 (prevents compiler warning). fix provided by Leo
12 <sdl.web at gmail.com>.
13 (ebib): added autoload cookie. suggested by Leo
14 <sdl.web at gmail.com>.
15 (ebib-mark-entry): fixed typo: '(face ,ebib-marked-face) to `(face
16 ,ebib-marked-face). fix provided by Leo <sdl.web at gmail.com>.
18 2007-10-22 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
20 * ebib.el (ebib): modified to store the buffer from which ebib is
21 called in ebib-push-buffer, so that it becomes the default for
22 pushing entries. Thanks to Sinisa Pajevic for the suggestion.
24 2007-10-20 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
26 * ebib.el (ebib-redisplay-current-field): modified. now redisplays
27 the entire entry buffer is the current field is crossref. (cutting
28 the value from the crossref field would leave the inherited field
30 (ebib-import): modified to use insert-buffer-substring, rather
31 than buffer-string and insert. this way, there is no need to
32 temporarily store the buffer contents in a variable.
33 (ebib-get-field-highlighted): modified so that it doesn't produce
34 an error if an entry contains a crossref to an entry that does not
36 (ebib-get-local-databases): variable bibfiles removed from the let.
38 2007-10-20 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
40 * ebib.el (ebib-local-bibtex-filenames): renamed from
41 ebib-local-bibtex-filname. this is now a list of strings, rather
42 than a string. thanks to Sinisa Pajevic for pointing out that a
43 \bibliography command can contain more than one .bib file.
44 (ebib-extract-bibfiles): removed.
45 (ebib-get-local-databases): modified to return a list of database
46 filenames. also now uses insert-buffer-substring, rather than a
47 combination of buffer-string and insert.
48 (ebib-insert-bibtex-key): modified so that it can handle multiple
49 bibtex files. this reflects the change to
50 ebib-local-bibtex-filenames.
51 (ebib-entry-summary): same.
53 2007-10-19 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
55 * ebib.el (ebib-push-entry-key): new. pushes the current entry
56 key, or the marked entry keys, to a buffer, using
57 ebib-insertion-strings. thanks to Sinisa Pajevic for suggesting
59 (ebib-key "p"): changed to ebib-push-entry-key.
60 (ebib-key "r"): new. assigned to ebib-edit-preamble.
61 (ebib-prefixed-functions): ebib-push-entry-key added.
62 (ebib-push-buffer): new. holds the name of the last buffer to
63 which an entry was pushed, to present it as default in the next
65 (ebib-insertion-strings): modified default value: 0 added.
67 2007-10-11 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
69 * ebib.el (ebib-get-field-highlighted): modified so as to show
70 field values inherited from a cross-referenced entry.
71 (ebib-crossref-face): new.
72 (ebib-edit-crossref): modified to redisplay the entire entry
73 buffer, not just the current field.
75 2007-07-29 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
77 * ebib.el (ebib-store-multiline-text): added a check to make sure
78 the text in the buffer doesn't contain unbalanced braces.
79 (ebib-filter-to-virtual-db): changed to give more feedback in the
80 minibuffer about what the user is doing.
82 2007-06-26 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
84 * ebib.el (ebib-insert-bibtex-key): changed to show the cite
85 command that the user has selected through the prefix argument.
87 2007-04-26 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
89 * ebib.el (ebib-standard-url-field): doc string modified.
91 2007-04-06 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
93 * ebib.el (ebib-allow-identical-fields): new.
94 (ebib-find-bibtex-fields): modified so as to use
95 ebib-allow-identical-fields.
97 2007-03-30 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
99 * ebib.el (ebib-url-regexp): bug fix: removed \l from default
102 2007-03-29 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
104 * ebib.el: Ebib 1.3.0 released.
106 2007-03-29 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
108 * ebib.el (ebib-index-mode-map): added "u" key.
109 (ebib-url-field): new.
110 (ebib-url-regexp): new.
111 (ebib-browse-url): new.
112 (ebib-call-browser): new.
113 (ebib-entry-mode-map): added "u" key.
114 (ebib-browse-url-in-field): new.
115 (ebib-call-browser-command): new.
117 2007-03-28 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
119 * ebib.el (raw-p): regexp "\".*?\" replaced with
120 "\"[^\"]*?\"". The dot doesn't match \n, so a multiline string
121 enclosed by double quotes was incorrectly recognised as a raw
124 2007-03-27 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
126 * ebib.el (ebib-export-entry): ebib-execute-when
127 removed. ebib-marked-p replaced with ebib-called-with-prefix.
128 (ebib-export-single-entry): added ebib-execute-when.
129 (ebib-export-marked-entries): same.
130 (ebib-prefix-map): new. (actually, this is ebib-semicolon-map
131 reintroduced under a new name.)
132 (ebib-index-mode-map): binding of the prefix key ";" changed to
134 (ebib-key): modified so that if the user redefines a key in
135 ebib-index-mode-map, it checks whether the function is bound in
136 ebib-prefix-map as well, and if so, binds it to the same
137 key. Furthermore, if the user unbinds a key, it is unbound in
138 ebib-prefix-map as well.
139 (ebib-marked-p): removed.
140 (ebib-prefixed-functions): new.
141 (ebib-prefix-key): new.
142 (ebib-key): modified so that it unsets the current prefix key if
143 the user redefines the prefix key with mark-prefix.
144 (ebib-index-mode-map): key bindings no longer done in the defvar
145 definition, but at top level with ebib-key. Using ebib-key has the
146 advantage that ebib-prefix-map is automatically set up correctly
149 2007-03-26 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
151 * ebib.el (ebib-called-with-prefix): new.
152 (ebib-marked-p): new.
153 (ebib-prefix-key): new.
154 (ebib-key): added clause for mark-prefix.
155 (ebib-delete-marked-entries): removed.
156 (ebib-delete-entry): modified to handle the prefix key.
157 (ebib-export-entry): modified to call either of two helper
158 functions, depending on whether it was called with or without
160 (ebib-export-single-entry): new. helper function for
162 (ebib-export-marked-entries): changed into helper function for
164 (ebib-print-database): removed.
165 (ebib-print-marked-entries): removed.
166 (ebib-semicolon-map): removed.
167 (ebib-index-mode-map): binding for L changed to
168 ebib-latex-entries, and binding for P changed to
170 (ebib-print-entries): made interactive and modified to handle
172 (ebib-latex-database): removed.
173 (ebib-latex-marked-entries): removed.
174 (ebib-latex-entries): made interactive and modified to handle
176 (ebib-mark-all): removed.
178 2007-03-25 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
180 * ebib.el (ebib-remove-entry-from-db): modified so that a deleted
181 entry is also deleted from edb-marked-entries if it's there. This
182 avoids problems when the user deletes a marked entry, and also
183 when he renames the entry key of a marked entry.
184 (ebib-delete-marked-entries): no longer sets edb-marked-entries to
185 nil, as the entries are removed one by one by
186 ebib-remove-entry-from-db.
187 (ebib-edit-keyname): modified so that it marks the renamed entry
188 if it was marked before the renaming.
189 (ebib-unmark-all): renamed to ebib-mark-all.
190 (ebib-mark-all): modified so that it marks all entries if there
191 are no marked entries.
192 (ebib-mark-entry): real-db removed from ebib-execute-when.
193 (ebib-export-entry): modified to include the entry name in the
194 messages passed to ebib-export-to-db and ebib-export-to-file.
195 (ebib-export-string): same with string abbreviation.
197 2007-03-24 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
199 * ebib.el (ebib-export-string): modified to make use of
200 ebib-export-to-db and ebib-export-to-file.
201 (ebib-export-all-strings): same.
202 (ebib-export-preamble): same.
203 (ebib-export-marked-entries): new.
204 (ebib-semicolon-map): new key "x" added.
206 (ebib-write-database): rewritten to stop XEmacs from
207 complaining. (See arch log for details.)
208 (ebib-export-to-file): modified documentation string, as it said
209 something about insert-fn that isn't correct.
210 (ebib-execute-helper): added marked-entries.
211 (ebib-delete-marked-entries): modified to use marked-entries.
212 (ebib-export-marked-entries): same.
213 (ebib-delete-marked-entries): added default clause to
215 (ebib-print-entries): new. contains most of the code of former
217 (ebib-print-database): modified to use ebib-print-entries.
218 (ebib-print-marked-entries): new.
219 (define-prefix-command): new keys "P", "L" and "m".
220 (ebib-mark-entry): modified: no longer adds the text properties to
221 the entry key in the database, just in the index buffer.
222 (ebib-fill-index-buffer): modified so that it adds a highlight to
224 (ebib-latex-entries): new. contains most of the code of former
226 (ebib-latex-database): modified to use ebib-latex-entries.
227 (ebib-latex-marked-entries): new.
228 (ebib-unmark-all): new.
230 2007-03-23 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
232 * ebib.el (ebib-export-to-db): new.
233 (ebib-export-to-file): new.
234 (ebib-export-entry): modified to make use of ebib-export-to-db and
237 2007-03-20 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
239 * ebib.el (ebib-edit-field): changed to unconditionally add braces
240 around the text the user enters. Formerly, this was done through
241 from-raw, which meant that if the user typed braces around the
242 text, these would disappear.
244 2007-03-19 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
246 * ebib.el (add-to-listq): added a test for Emacs < 22.
247 (ebib-index-mode-map): removed 'ebib-index-mode-map argument to
248 make-keymap. Emacs officially doesn't even allow it, and in XEmacs
250 (ebib-entry-mode-map): same.
251 (ebib-strings-mode-map): same.
252 (ebib-help-mode-map): same.
253 (ebib-semicolon-map): new.
254 (ebib-index-mode-map): added ";" key.
255 (ebib-remove-entry-from-db): bug fix: would delete the key of the
256 current entry from the keys list, regardless of which entry was
258 (ebib-semicolon-map): added "d" key.
259 (ebib-delete-marked-entries): new.
260 (ebib-entry-mode-map): bindings of C-x b and C-x k changed to
262 (disabled): removed. The predefined function undefined does the
265 2007-03-13 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
267 * ebib.el (ebib-filter-to-virtual-db): removed the check for the
268 `type' field. What was actually meant was the `type*' field, and
269 since this is not in ebib-unique-field-list anyway, the user isn't
270 able to filter on it.
272 2007-03-12 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
274 * ebib.el (ebib-mark-entry): added again for the 1.3 branch.
276 2007-03-12 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
278 * ebib.el: ebib 1.2.0 released.
280 2007-03-12 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
282 * ebib.el (ebib-mark-entry): removed in preparation for release.
284 2007-03-12 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
286 * ebib.el (ebib-print-database): bugfix: if ebib-print-tempfile is
287 set to "", which is its default value, the body of if-str would
289 (ebib-latex-database): same.
291 2007-03-10 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
293 * ebib.el (ebib-latex-database): new.
294 (ebib-print-preamble): new.
295 (ebib-print-multiline): new.
296 (ebib-latex-preamble): new.
297 (ebib-print-tempfile): new.
298 (ebib-print-database): modified to use ebib-print-preamble,
299 ebib-print-multiline and ebib-print-tempfile.
300 (ebib-latex-database): added real-db to ebib-execute-when.
301 (ebib-timestamp-format): new.
302 (ebib-insert-entry): modified to use format-time-string and ebib-timestamp-format.
303 (ebib-format-entry): same.
304 (ebib-yank-field-contents): renamed from ebib-paste-field-contents.
306 2007-03-08 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
308 * ebib.el (ebib-print-database): new.
310 2007-03-06 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
312 * ebib.el (ebib-index-scroll-down): new. replaces ebib-entry-page-up.
313 (ebib-index-scroll-up): new. replaces ebib-entry-page-down.
314 (ebib-follow-crossref): new.
315 (ebib-index-mode-map): added "F" key.
317 2007-03-02 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
319 * ebib.el (ebib-delete-entry): removed optional argument
320 entry-key, as it wasn't used at all.
322 2007-03-01 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
324 * ebib.el (ebib-paste-field-contents): sets this-command to t if
325 called illegally. that way, a second consecutive call to this
326 function is also recognised as illegal.
328 2007-02-26 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
330 * ebib.el (ebib-paste-field-contents): doc string slightly expanded.
332 2007-02-25 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
334 * ebib.el (ebib-paste-field-contents): added test for crossref field.
335 (ebib-paste-field-contents): modified so that repeatedly calling
336 this command walks around the kill ring, just like C-y/M-y.
338 2007-02-23 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
340 * ebib.el (ebib-move-to-field): bug fix: if the field being moved
341 to is type*, used to search for 'type', causing confusion with an
342 actual type field (e.g. in the entry type incollection.) now just
343 moves to (point-min).
344 (ebib-set-modified): bug fix: the modification flag of the index
345 buffer would be (re)set, regardless of whether it actually holds
346 the database whose modification flag is being (re)set.
348 2007-02-22 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
350 * ebib.el (ebib-execute-when): changed so that it does not produce
351 a spurious and if the envs list of a form only contains one element.
353 2007-02-21 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
355 * ebib.el (ebib-print-filter): changed the argument of interactive
356 from "p" to "P", to obtain the raw prefix argument.
357 (ebib-save-current-database): changed message to error.
358 (ebib-print-filter): added a default-clause to ebib-execute-when,
360 (ebib-prev-entry): same.
361 (ebib-next-entry): same.
362 (ebib-add-entry): same.
363 (ebib-goto-first-entry): same.
364 (ebib-goto-last-entry): same.
365 (ebib-edit-keyname): same.
366 (ebib-mark-entry): same.
367 (ebib-entry-page-up): same.
368 (ebib-entry-page-down): same.
369 (ebib-write-database): same.
370 (ebib-delete-entry): same.
371 (ebib-select-entry): same.
372 (ebib-export-entry): same.
374 (ebib-search-next): same.
375 (ebib-edit-strings): same.
376 (ebib-edit-preamble): same.
377 (ebib-export-preamble): same.
378 (ebib-virtual-db-and): same.
379 (ebib-virtual-db-or): same.
380 (ebib-virtual-db-not): same.
382 2007-02-20 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
384 * ebib.el (ebib-filter-to-virtual-db): fixed a bug: the additional
385 fields weren't included in the collection.
386 (ebib-edit-field): spurious progn removed.
387 (ebib-execute-helper): wrapped in an eval-and-compile because
388 otherwise XEmacs complains that the symbol ebib-execute-helper's
389 value as function is void.
390 (safe-write-region): new. GNU Emacs has an optional argument to
391 write-region that can be used to make sure the user doesn't
392 inadvertently overwrite an already existing file. XEmacs does not
394 (ebib-write-database): modified to use safe-write-region.
395 (ebib-insertion-strings): changed the default value from nil to
396 '((1 . "\\cite{%s}")).
398 2007-02-19 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
400 * ebib.el (ebib-index-mode-map): changed binding for
401 ebib-merge-bibtex-file from "m" to "M".
402 (ebib-index-mode-map): added binding "m" for ebib-mark-entry.
403 (ebib-mark-entry): new.
404 (ebib-marked-face): new. needed to accommodate xemacs. there must
405 be a better way to do this... Note that in xemacs, i know of no
406 better way than to use '(face highlight) for both the overlay
407 marking the current entry and to mark selected entries. that means
408 that you cannot tell if the current entry is selected or not. gnu
409 emacs has highlight and :inverse-video. (though the former may be
410 obsoleted at some point?)
411 (ebib-fill-index-buffer): changed to accommodate xemacs. (see
412 comment in the source.)
413 (ebib-index-buffer-help): updated.
414 (ebib-execute-when): new.
415 (ebib-execute-helper): new.
416 (when-entries): removed. its functionality is now covered by
418 (ebib-write-database): modified to use ebib-execute-when and if-str.
419 (ebib-export-entry): modified to use ebib-execute-when. also added
420 a check to make sure that the goal database is not virtual.
421 (ebib-export-preamble): same.
422 (ebib-export-all-strings): added a check to make sure the goal
423 database is not virtual.
424 (ebib-export-string): same.
425 (ebib-prev-entry): modified to use ebib-execute-when.
426 (ebib-next-entry): same.
427 (ebib-add-entry): same.
428 (ebib-close-database): same.
429 (ebib-goto-first-entry): same.
430 (ebib-goto-last-entry): same.
431 (ebib-edit-entry): same.
432 (ebib-edit-keyname): same.
433 (ebib-entry-page-up): same.
434 (ebib-entry-page-down): same.
435 (ebib-save-database): same.
436 (ebib-save-current-database): same.
437 (ebib-delete-entry): same.
438 (ebib-remove-key-from-buffer): same.
439 (ebib-select-entry): same.
441 (ebib-search-next): same.
442 (ebib-edit-strings): same.
443 (ebib-edit-preamble): same.
444 (ebib-next-database): same.
445 (ebib-prev-database): same.
446 (ebib-virtual-db-and): same.
447 (ebib-virtual-db-or): same.
448 (ebib-virtual-db-not): same.
449 (ebib-print-filter): same.
451 2007-02-19 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
453 * ebib.el: ebib-1.1.4 released.
455 2007-02-19 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
457 * ebib.el (ebib-filter-to-virtual-db): changed the collection to
458 contain strings rather than symbols, because xemacs requires that.
460 2007-02-18 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
462 * ebib.el (add-to-listq): new. introduced mainly because xemacs
463 doesn't allow the fourth argument to add-to-list. (actually, i'm
464 not sure if emacs 21.4 supports it...)
466 2007-02-13 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
468 * ebib.el (ebib-quit): set ebib-strings-highlight to nil.
470 2007-02-11 Joost Kremers <joostkremers@yahoo.com>
472 * ebib.el (ebib-unique-field-list): new. used for TAB-completion
473 in ebib-filter-to-virtual-db.
474 (ebib-set-entry-types-hash): modified to set
475 ebib-unique-field-list.
476 (ebib-key): modified to keep the cond statement out of the
478 (ebib-create-new-database): modified to take an optional database
479 argument: if supplied, returns a copy of that database.
480 (ebib-index-mode-map): added "&", "|", "~" and "V".
481 (ebib-virtual-db-and): new.
482 (ebib-virtual-db-or): new.
483 (ebib-virtual-db-not): new.
484 (ebib-filter-to-virtual-db): new.
485 (ebib-create-virtual-db): new.
487 (ebib-run-filter): new.
488 (ebib-print-filter): new.
489 (ebib-write-database): modified to handle virtual databases.
490 (ebib-edit-entry): modified to exclude virtual databases.
491 (ebib-edit-keyname): same.
492 (ebib-save-current-database): same.
493 (ebib-save-database): same.
494 (ebib-merge-bibtex-file): same
495 (ebib-add-entry): same.
496 (ebib-delete-entry): same.

500 (ebib-export-preamble): same.
502 (ebib-fill-entry-buffer): modified so that it does not result in
503 an error if the current entry does not exist. This is needed in
504 case the user deletes an entry from a database that has a virtual
505 database that containe that entry.
506 (ebib-format-entry): put (eq key 'timestamp) first in the and
507 clause. no need to check timestamp and ebib-use-timestamp for any
509 (ebib-write-database): modified so that when a virtual database is
510 written to a file, it doesn't attempt to put an entry that is
511 still in a virtual database's keys-list but has been deleted in
512 the source database into the new database. (note: this is still
513 not the proper way to handle this. we need to find a clean way to
514 handle the consequences of an entry being deleted in a source
