Hello, First of all, thanks for this tools, containing more and more features. I manage a “large” bibtext file (about 1080 entries (with non documents attached, research purpose). Each time I update something on a “good file” (with no errors) and saving it, I get an error when I open it …

Thanks for your long reply with detailed descriptions!
