Re: hyperbole: programmatic button creation

[Brad Collins <brad@studiojungle.net>]

Cool idea, I'd be interested in seeing the finished app....

I'd also love to create a function in boxquote so that I could
automatically pull out a bibtex entry, format it and dump it in a
boxquote in a simular way that boxquote-define-function works so you'd
get something like this:

,----[ Morris:1871:LHR ]
|   form  	 :Book (Print, Microform, Electronic, etc.)
|   personalName :Morris, Richard, 1833-1894.
|   uniformTitle :Legends of the holy rood
|   mainTitle  	 :Legends of the holy rood : Symbols of the passion
|                   and cross-poems. In Old English of the eleventh,
|                   fourteenth, and fifteenth centuries. Ed. from
|                   mss. in the British Museum and Bodleian Libraries;
|                   with introduction, translations, and glossarial
|                   index / by Richard Morris.

Obviously, this was taken from a very localized Bibtex entry :)

It's on my list of things to do in the next week or so.... if anyone
is interested I'll pass it on when I get it working.
