BibDesk 0.97.1 is available from http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/. This
is intended to be a bugfix release, and we thank those of you who
submitted crash reports (and if you tell us what you did just before
the program crashed, the reports are even more helpful). We fixed a
bad crasher from 0.97, and hopefully BibDesk will run under Jaguar
again (although it hasn't been tested).
We had some bug reports on autocompletion, so much of the the plugin
has been rewritten, hopefully without introducing new bugs. This will
require a reinstall of the plugin from BibDesk's autocompletion
preferences. Curt Clifton, an intrepid user of BBEdit and BibDesk,
wrote an AppleScript to enable a similar completion feature in BBEdit;
his script can be found at
http://www.cs.iastate.edu/~cclifton/software.shtml.
Note that numerous AppleScripts are available from the BibDesk wiki at
http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/AppleScript, as well, and
these can be used to populate the new script menu. Please add a link
to your own BibDesk-related AppleScripts! I've seen some good ones
posted on the bibdesk-users mailing list, but they're now buried in the
list archives.
