(setq helm-bibtex-additional-search-fields '(pubstate)) also on a related issue i assume one can define many fields in the above example. since my elisp sucks would the syntax be this (setq helm-bibtex-additional-search-fields '(pubstate tags)) or do you need to qoute them or use a , symbol? 5. i love the insert formatted reference (f5) option and use it often sending people references: a. does it also auto send that to the clipboard? b. it cuts most of the authors name and leaves only the first few. is there a switch to get it to print all authors. is that a latex cite formatting issue? best and thanks so much again Z On Mon, Jun 22, 2015 at 6:12 PM, Titus von der Malsburg wrote: > > > Here is my CV in org-mode: > > https://gist.github.com/tmalsburg/96084ba82281937c26b7 > > It=E2=80=99s a pretty straightforward org document except for one thing: = the key > to making this work was biblatex which can be used to create several > lists of references filtered according to keywords, author, etc. This > allowed me to have separate sections for journal articles, conference > presentations, etc. I store the relevant keywords in the tags field of > the BibTeX entries and since biblatex doesn=E2=80=99t know this field, I = copy > the tags on-the-fly to the keywords field (see DeclareSourcemap in the > LaTeX headers). > > Titus > > On 2015-06-22 Mon 07:28, Xebar Saram wrote: > > Hi John > > > > a bit off topic, but do you also write your academic CV in orgmode or > > lateX? in anycase would you mind sharing your org/latex CV template? it > > would be helpful as a starting point for me if thats possible. > > > > kind regards and thanks so much in advance > > > > Z > > > > On Sun, Jun 21, 2015 at 9:40 PM, John Kitchin > > wrote: > > > >> sweet!

Hi Titus

Another round of helm-bi= btex questions if you dont mind (question come since i use it 50 times a da= y now ;-))

1. is there a way (or a keybind) to sele= ct all entries filtered? now to select all my publications for example i ha= ve to use C-space repeatedly.

2. what is the synta= x for greater then? for example all articles > 2012 (year)
4. i cant get helm-bibtex to search the biblatex field of pubst= ate. are biblatex (biber) supported/ i have this in my config?
(setq helm-bibtex-additional-search-fields '(pubstate))

also on a related issue i assume one can define many= fields in the above example. since my elisp sucks would the syntax be this=

(setq helm-bibtex-additional-search-fields '(= pubstate tags))

or do you need to qoute them o= r use a , symbol?

5. i love the insert formatted r= eference (f5) option and use it often sending people references:
<= /div>
a. does it also auto send that to the clipboard?
b. it = cuts most of the authors name and leaves only the first few. is there a swi= tch to get it to print all authors. is that a latex cite formatting issue?<= /div>

best and thanks so much again

It=E2=80=99s a pretty straightforward org document except for one thing: th= e key
to making this work was biblatex which can be used to create several
lists of references filtered according to keywords, author, etc.=C2=A0 This=
