[OS X TeX] Bibliography Key

[Herbert Schulz]

Howdy,

Can a bibliography key (the information that goes in the \cite  
command) have white space? The only comment I've been able to find is  
that it can contain letters, symbols and numbers but not a comma  
(which makes sense since it is the field delimiter); no comment about  
white space and that could be interpreted as a symbol.

I know that the space key is ignored when entering a key in Bibdesk.

Good Luck,
