It should also parse the .tex file and figure out what .bib file to open, as well. No guarantee of reliability though :).
but probably did not wait long enough and returned with the message "this command should be used with bibdesk 1.3.0" etc
That's odd. It tries repeatedly for 10 seconds to establish a connection to BibDesk, which should be plenty of time. That message is only displayed if the connection fails but some version of BibDesk is running, so the assumption is that it's an old version.
- the second time, I closed the bib file again but since bibdesk was
active it took less time to reopen it. however nothing happened after that in textmate (no completion propositions, no error/warning message)
If you can reproduce that, please follow up with me off-list so I can fix the problems if possible. I only use it occasionally these days, so it doesn't get much testing on my part.
I'll use this from now on (and still try to figure what makes the ruby parser choke on my file, it may be the symptom of a deeper issue).
Even valid BibTeX is really hard to parse correctly, unfortunately.
