Hi !

Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the broken file and haven't been able to 
break it since then. I didn't have the program open for more than a minute. I 
just added a field somewhere without really knowing what I was doing and then 
tried to export as bibtex, which failed. If I ever figure out how I did it, 
I'll post it.
