Re: Agenda view with bibliographic references

["G. Martin Butz" <butz@sym.net>]

Hallo Darlan,

thanks for the input, which gives me new insights. E.g. I found out, 
that I can just display CATEGORY in one column of the column view (not 
the whole file path), which solves one of my minor problems.

Nevertheless, I wanted to avoid any redundant data input (such as the 
authors sirname as 'category', which would make sense because I would 
like to sort the the references according to authors alphabetically).

Thanks and greetings
Martin
