Avi is a hero and even answers questions of people how do not read manuals
properly!

His `` answer is clear; `` is a formatting symbol for Endnote.

As I found out in a private exchange with him last year, # poses similar
problems. As we all know Endnote leaves # markers in the written text.
Now, for LaTex this is terrible, because TeX macros start with # (oops).
Avi has promised a user defined citation symbol in Endnote to get around
this problem.

Textures users (Blue Sky Research's implementation of TeX on the Mac)
are faced with another problem. A Textures file contains text, but the typeset
text and pictures as well. These are kept as resources and unless you use
ResEdit you will never know. Now, when you go through your original file
with Endnote, ONLY the text is copied to the new file. There are two ways
around this:

(1) Use Resedit to copy the resources over (works)
(2) Use DirectTex, a shareware implementation by Wilfried Ricken. This is
available from all good Tex servers via ftp (that's what I do).
(3) convince Avi that Endnote should do this automatically

I have also spotted some Endnote--Bibtex interaction macro on the Niles
server, but have not tried that yet.

Has anybody written a BibTex--Endnote Import/Export filter?

Any other Latex users out there?

Yours  Marco
