Dear Jabref developers and contributors,
I always prefer to fill the ‘abstract’ field in Jabref, so I can easily remember what a paper is about.
However, is a tedious job to copy and paste it every single time, so most of the time I omit that step.
It would be great, if a process could run on the text file, export the abstract, and put it automatically in the proper field.
I tried to build a quick-and-dirty tool in Python to do that job, but it is not always straightforward process.
[Assumption: I keep a copy of a document’s text in my computer. I think if the document is not stored on the local machine, extraction process can’t happen.]
Please vote if you support this proposal:
- I would like to have this feature, too!
- I don’t care.
