Hi Titus and thx so much for the answers!
i will in the future use the github page to make requests.
"The number of matches will be displayed in the mode line. "
i see that now thx! :) the problem was(is) that its colored black on my
black modline BG which makes it invisible ;-) i assume thats an helm config
i need to change
"If you don’t want to type these search expressions, you could create a
command that invokes helm-bibtex with a default search expression and that
command could be bound to a keyboard shortcut."
that would be prefect for me and a solution to my issue. would you mind
giving an example of such a code chunk. unfortunately i dont know elisp though
as john recommended i will do my best this summer when the semester ends to
try and pick it up :)
i will definitely use your tag system as you recommended, sounds perfect
for me
thanks again for your kind help and the amazing app ;-)
best
Z
