Comments on: Possibly the best BibTeX error message ever http://www.xyre.org/2008/04/15/possibly-the-best-bibtex-error/ Ancient writings, current events, and my other whims Wed, 20 Aug 2008 16:56:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Adam http://www.xyre.org/2008/04/15/possibly-the-best-bibtex-error/#comment-273 Adam Thu, 24 Apr 2008 23:37:01 +0000 http://www.xyre.org/?p=130#comment-273 As a BibDesk developer, I don't think this is so funny. If you can reproduce it with the latest version, please file a bug report or send the file to me and I'll take a look. This error message could occur when using a version of BibDesk released last summer when run on Leopard, due to some unfortunate changes in Apple's document type handling. As far as I know, it shouldn't appear otherwise, and BibDesk should definitely not be "trashing every last byte of data" in your bibliography! As a BibDesk developer, I don’t think this is so funny.
