Anything in your clipboard is queued up to import into cb2Bib. The easiest
way, for example, to import a bibtex database entry from Google Scholar is
to highlight the entire entry in the browser with a mouse, and it's parts
are already displayed in cb2Bib.
If, for example, one is trying to save from a text-based bibliography entry,
it may be copied to the clipboard. Highlight, for example, the title, and
right click, then select "title". And so on. This is the automagical part
that I have found so very useful.
It is important to 'unplug' cb2Bib if the entry needs to be edited. If not,
any action in the fields and displayed will be lost. Then save using the
save icons.
I have to say, though, that a little explanation would go a long way, when
trying to use it.
Once this process is complete, I can see that being able to, in turn copy
this entry to the clipboard would indeed be useful with org-bibtex . I
wonder if it's possible to set a pipe or one of those cryptic file types
(fifo?) I cannot remember would either work, or whether the developers would
agree to enabling this ability.
