Finally, texspark supports BibTeX! For the past while I’ve been heads-down writing a full-length book, where citations never really came up — but now that the manuscript is done and I’m back to research papers, I needed BibTeX again. So here it is.
BibTeX
- BibTeX tab in the sidebar. Next to Outline and Labels, a new BibTeX tab lists every entry from the
.bibfiles your project references (\addbibresource/\bibliography), discovered recursively across\input/\include. Filter as you type.- Click — insert
\cite{key}at the editor cursor - Double-click — open the
.bibfile at that entry
- Click — insert
- Citation autocompletion. Typing
\cite{,\citep{,\citet{(and friends) now suggests your BibTeX keys, the same way\ref{offers labels — one source of truth, drawn from the same entries. - .bib syntax highlighting. Open a
.bibfile and entry types, field names, citation keys, and braces are colored to match your theme.
