FILE field

Closed this issue · 0 comments

Currently the assumed format for the file field is FILE:TYPE[;FILE:TYPE]... where TYPE is always pdf (so far) and FILE indicate the full file path.

This is understood by JabRef (at least for one file), but according to this discussion, each individual file should be instead BASENAME:FILE:TYPE or :FILE:TYPE or even :FILE:

Since BASENAME is redundant (it can be obtained from FILE), I kind of like :FILE:TYPE.
In any case, this should be accounted for when parsing the file field of a bibtex entry.
