Subject: Use of \w Emacs regexp in org-export-bibtex.el excludes BiBTeX filenames with underscore
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2009 10:31:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090814173138.GD21719@hplhtang> (raw)

Hi Taru,

In contrib/lisp/org-export-bibtex.el, the BiBTeX file has to match the Emacs
regexp "\w+".  So a line like

#+BIBLIOGRAPHY: mybib_new

will not work because of the underscore character in the filename.  (I suppose
the actual behavior depends on the local Emacs settings that affect the "syntax
table".)  May I propose changing the regexp to "[[:alnum:]_]+"?

Initially, I was stumped by this because I thought \w was a "regular" regexp
:), such as defined in sed, and would match underscores as well.

Best,
Hsiu-Khuern.
