BibDesk: Help to compile bibliographies
BibDesk is a bibliographic reference manager that helps make the arduous task of compiling bibliographies a bit easier. It is designed to help organize and use bibliographic databases in BibTeX .bib format, which is specific to bibliographies. With BibDesk, you can easily drag and drop or cut and paste .bib files into the bibliographic database, and it can also automatically open files downloaded from the PubMed database.
BibDesk is not a standalone solution for all your bibliography needs, but it integrates well with TeX for creating citations and bibliographies. However, it does not have official integration with LaTeX or Textmate, which you may also need.
Overall, BibDesk is an excellent tool for anyone who needs to create bibliographies for their academic work. It simplifies the process and provides useful features like integration with .bib, PubMed, and TeX. It also allows you to keep track of electronic copies of literature on your computer and search your database. While there may be a learning curve, especially when using other apps, BibDesk is a valuable resource for managing bibliographies.
