Heya- Just curious if a BibTeX export will be introduced soon. I'm about to integrate Books into my workflow, part of which involves being able to cite books...
I'm working on a BibTeX export plugin, and it should be released later this month with 3.0alpha14. If you'd like to be my guinea pig in the meantime, let me...
The latest version of Books is now available for download: http://books.aetherial.net/downloads/Books_3.0a13.tbz This release fixes some embarassang...
I am new to books, and am seriously techo challenged. I am beginning to use books3.0a12. I think I have done sometthing terrible. When I try to save or close...
I was having two problems with batch quickfill: --when I tried to run it on my current library (1382 items) it spawned a zillion threads and locked up my...
