Hi,

Consider the following BibTeX entry:

@misc{placeholder,
  author =	 {Mamoru Miura <mamo0110@gmail.com>},
  created =	 {[2022-07-19 Tue 09:44]},
  howpublished = {ML:Org mode},
  link =
                  {notmuch:id:9F4AA657-D34B-4B85-A80D-1DD4B3017DB2@gmail.com},
  note =	 {Online; accessed 19 July 2022},
  title =	 {Re: Bug: Appointments duration and effort sums in
                  agenda column view [9.3.7 (release_9.3.7-700-ga1e5be
                  @ ~/.emacs.d/straight/build/org/)]},
  typealt =	 {email},
  year =	 2022,
}

Put the point at the "year" field and run
M-: (bibtex-beginning-of-entry)

Observed: Point moves to the @ ~/.emacs.d line.
Expected: Point moves to @misc

The problem is not only with the direct call to
bibtex-beginning-of-entry, but also shows up in functions that make use
of this function. For example, (bibtex-generate-autokey) or
(bibtex-autokey-get-title) will treat "title" field as empty in the
above scenario.

Best,
Ihor

I guess the problem is with the @ in the title entry?

I've added Roland to the CCs; perhaps he has some comments.

Yes, bibtex-beginning-of-entry is doing
(re-search-backward "^[ \t]*@" nil 'move) which does not match the right
thing in this particular case.

Best,

This old part of the code should use bibtex-entry-maybe-empty-head.

Looking at the code, it frequently performs a strange dance
where a call of bibtex-beginnig-of-entry is followed by
(looking-at bibtex-entry-maybe-empty-head).
That doesn't make sense, it works around the above bug instead of
doing it right in the first place.  I'll look for a better solution
for this.

May I know if there is any progress on this?

Pinging once more. Maybe this can be fixed before Emacs 29?

Though it is probably not very high priority.

I do have a ptach that I'll install shortly (my internet access is
limited right now).
