Bibliography in Emacs.1. I found a Zotero guix package: https://github.com/guix-science/guix-science/pull/27/files2. @goku12 mentioned https://github.com/mpedramfar/zotra emacs package, which can use zotero translators without zotero client itself!3. There is org-capture-ref package. https://github.com/yantar92/org-capture-ref, which is similiar to zotra, but more ad-hoc.4. It's seems that a good solution will be to package zotra and translation-server and setup org-protocol handler for capturing bib entries from browser.#guix #zotero #emacs #orgmode

@abcdw @goku12 For the past 20+ years I've maintained a bibliography (now at ~13 000 entries) using nothing but #Emacs #auctex & #bibtex mode on what's basically just a text (.bib) file. A short #elisp function also allows me to immediately open the document (say, pdf or djvu) corresponding to the entry, simply by entering F9 anywhere on the entry. This system has several advantages:Emacs's regexp-search together with reftex-citation allow for incredibly powerful and flexible searches through the databaseAny other interaction niceties more or less easily implementable through elisp code. For instance, I have a custom function that abbreviates a selected piece of text according to ISO 4 standardIt's basically just a text file, so in particular situations one can search or modify with any text editorAutomatically integrated with Emacs & AUCTeX when writing TeX files (in Emacs of course :) )Of course it's a purely subjective choice, I'm not saying it's objectively better than any other. But worth considering and trying!

@pglpm @abcdw @goku12 Very impressive! A good showcase of the power of Emacs, Elisp and auctex. Thanks for sharing.
