Brilliant idea!

here's some early feedback:
* is there a way to batch import a bunch of pdfs? or better yet, a bibtex file with entries pointing
  to files like the ones produced by say jabref?
  There, entries have some line like this:
  file = {Boz2012.pdf:papers/Boz2012.pdf:PDF}

* got a bunch of traces:
  -----------------------------
  $xapers import --source=ABK2011.pdf                                                                                     1 ↵ master 
  Reading bibtex... done.
  Adding bibtex...

* did you already set something up to report bugs? github issues, a maling list?

Can't wait until someone forks alot to use this. I've been waiting for someone (else)
to start a project like this for some time now :)

rock on,
