I use Emacs and Auctex. For my academic research, so far I have made notes in several files - one for each paper. Several people have recommended Mendeley to me. Mendeley is proprietary (even though it is gratis) and I prefer open source. I only tolerate proprietary software if it is much better than the open alternative. Can you recommend a good alternative to Mendeley? Integration with Emacs is a plus but not mandatory. But it must be something I can learn (the basics) in an afternoon.
