For the records:
The bug report below was submitted to auctex (bug#39479).
I am reposting it here.
==================================================================
Hi,
The bibtex-generate-autokey function uses
'bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' to substitute special or accented
characters or ligatures with ascii characters.
I noticed that it doesn't lead to the intended behaviour for '\oe' and
'\OE', which get converted to 'oee' rather than 'oe'. On the other
hand, '\o', '\"o', and their capitalized counterparts are correctly
converted to 'oe' (and also '\ae' to 'ae').
This quirk seems to be fixed if '\o' and '\oe' are swapped in
bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings. Then all variants are correctly
converted.
So I propose to change the current bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings into
'(("\\\\aa" . "a")
("\\\\AA" . "A")
("\\\"a\\|\\\\\\\"a\\|\\\\ae" . "ae")
("\\\"A\\|\\\\\\\"A\\|\\\\AE" . "Ae")
("\\\\i" . "i")
("\\\\j" . "j")
("\\\\l" . "l")
("\\\\L" . "L")
("\\\"o\\|\\\\\\\"o\\|\\\\oe\\|\\\\o" . "oe")
("\\\"O\\|\\\\\\\"O\\|\\\\OE\\|\\\\O" . "Oe")
("\\\"s\\|\\\\\\\"s\\|\\\\3" . "ss")
("\\\"u\\|\\\\\\\"u" . "ue")
("\\\"U\\|\\\\\\\"U" . "Ue")
("\\\\`\\|\\\\'\\|\\\\\\^\\|\\\\~\\|\\\\=\\|\\\\\\.\\|\\\\u\\|\\\\v\\|\\\\H\\|\\\\t\\|\\\\c\\|\\\\d\\|\\\\b"
. "")
("[`'\"{}#]" . "")
("\\\\-" . "")
("\\\\?[ \n]+\\|~" . " "))
Cheers!

Bibtex-mode uses the variable bibtex-autokey-transcriptions to define the default values of `bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' and `bibtex-autokey-titleword-change-strings'. So something like eval-after-load will work only if it deals with all three variables. Say, you first set bibtex-autokey-transcriptions to its new value; then you use this to set `bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' and `bibtex-autokey-titleword-change-strings'. It is probably easier to simply set bibtex-autokey-transcriptions in your init file to its new value. Normally, emacs should load bibtex-mode later. Then it will use your value of bibtex-autokey-transcriptions to set the values of `bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' and `bibtex-autokey-titleword-change-strings'. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

A proper patch is attached below. The patch affects the autokey machinery of bibtex-mode that calculates keys for new BibTeX entries based on the content of an entry. The entry point for the autokey machinery is the function bibtex-generate-autokey. In bibtex.el, this function is called once by the user command bibtex-clean-entry. No other package inside emacs relies on this. diff --git a/lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el b/lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el index a7be57e..670e763 100644 --- a/lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el +++ b/lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el @@ -1006,32 +1006,36 @@ bibtex-autokey-expand-strings :type 'boolean) (defvar bibtex-autokey-transcriptions - '(;; language specific characters - ("\\\\aa" .

The idea in bibtex-autokey-transcriptions is that each match of OLD-REGEXP is replaced in full by NEW-STRING. Subexpressions are ignored. In LaTeX syntax, OLD-REGEXP can appear anywhere inside what LaTeX considers a word (which even may include spaces). So to make things more fool-proofed, it would be necessary to parse more carefully the LaTeX code. I do not think this effort is needed here as these regexps have worked well for at least two decades. The patch fixes a minor problem of these regexps pointed out by the OP. But otherwise it preserves their spirit. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

But > otherwise it preserves their spirit. In LaTeX you can't just write 'b\oeuf'; it will complain that '\oeuf' is undefined. You have to write 'b\oe uf' or 'b{\oe}uf'. Thus there is a word break at the end. (Accents, like '\"o', are different; there is only a single letter after the '\"'.) With your table, you replace '\o' with 'oe', but what if the text uses a different \-sequence starting with \o, like '\omega'? After substitution, you would have 'oemega' which wasn't intended. Safer then to tack on a zero-width assertion, like "\\\\\\(?:o\\|oe\\)\\>" for example. Or, if you think it's hard to read, (rx "\\" (or "o" "oe") word-end) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

In bibtex-mode, all this is used in the context of what is supposed to represent names and titles of books and articles. The current scheme has been in place for at least two decades and nobody complained about this. (Note that the current thread is about something else.) So I assume that what you are concerned about is so rare (at least in the context of the autokey machinery) that it is not worth the effort. But feel free to provide a patch along these lines. However, that patch should certainly go into master because it modifies the current scheme. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread
