Avi Rappoport:
   I like EndNote and use it for all the papers I type with Word 5.0.
My collaborators generally don't use it, because they use Tex. I usually
supply references on joint papers, often by hand because of the clumsiness
of the interface between my workstation and my Mac. Do you have any
plans to write a Sun version of EndNote? Do you anticipate
a Tex compatible version? Do you have any competition in either
the platform or the application?
   Our library at Los Alamos has been having endless difficulty
getting an acceptable on-line cataloguing system. The Geac system has been
under test for a year, with a new version (5) becoming available
this summer which may or may not address all the problems.
One difficulty appears to be the inability of the system to
recognize other than a few frequency patterns for serials.
It strikes me that the reliability and the documentation of this system
are amateurish compared with good application programs like EndNote.
Do you see any possibility of trying to move into the on-line cataloguing
business? Do you see this as an especially difficult program to write well,
or simply one that requires sufficient effort?

Here we have used EndNote+ and TeX for several manuscripts on Mac,
works like a charm. What's the problem ? Just make a TeX style
file, output stuff with \sl etc...  OzTeX or Textures are good
Mac TeX programs. OzTeX is free or shareware, I don't remember.

EndNote+ on a Sun would be VERY nice!

If you are using LaTeX and BibTex then instead of formatting the
Endnote output for LaTeX you can do it for BibTeX. This is very simple
and might be more compatible with the LaTeX users.

P.S. If you want my BibTex Export format file let me know.
