CiteDrive is a collaborative online reference manager for BibTeΧ. Its strengthens are the possibility to pick up references from online sources like PubMed or Google Scholar via a Browser plugin (“CiteDrive Companion”) and the integration into several LaTeΧ editors like Overleaf or RStudio. It can produce cite commands for LaTeΧ and Pandoc as well. I…
There have been a couple of projects that aim to convert LaTeΧ sources to HTML, XML or MS Word. Only two have gained a broader interest of the audience: LaTeΧML TeΧ4ht (htlatex). The former does not support BibLaTeΧ. So we are stuck to TeΧ4ht. As the name indicates it was originally a TeX to HTML…
Pandoc is a command line tool for converting from one markup to another. It uses a largely enhanced markdown syntax as intermediate format. This allows for adding input and output filters for only one format instead of writing them for every possible conversion anew. In case you don’t know what markdown is: It was invented…
LyΧ is an editor for LaTeΧ that resembles WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors like Microsoft Word or LibreOffice. This is achieved by employing a HTML like reduced command set screen output and full LaTeΧ for printable formats. Thus the applicable LaTeΧ commands are limited to those for which screen macro complement…
I assume that most German archaeologists employ Zotero or Citavi to collect their references. Both are web-based reference managers today, and both are capable to export BibTeΧ files. The main issue is that their database structure is not as in high resolution as BibTeΧ and especially bibLaTeΧ are. Zotero In order to export refrences from…

My LaTeΧ package biblatex-archaeology [v2.2] was selected for very-long-term archival in the GitHub Arctic Code Vault on Spitsbergen.
This is the first entry in a series of blog posts that aim to investigate how my biblatex-archaeology package interferes with software commonly used by its target audience. Since v2.2 was declared feature complete the objective of v2.3’s development is to enhance usability. JabRef is a very common reference manager in the LaTeΧ world. As…
Good news! Yesterday version 2.2 of my LaTeΧ package biblatex-archaeology was released, with which it comes close to feature completeness. There are no new features on my to-do list, only some minor improvements of existing features and better documentation. Unfortunately there was a huge delay in upgrading, and since the release of biblatex 3.14 biblatex-archaeology…
