Hi,

I have been looking for a bibliographic reference manager in Linux for 
some time. I have used Sixpack and JabRef, but after seeing the new 
version of Pybliographic I am considering to switch. There is only one 
thing that I really miss in Pybliographic: the possibility to link the 
references to a PDF file. It's something that I used a lot in Sixpack 
and JabRef. I like to be able to click over the reference and open the 
file in an external viewer.

I saw in the mailing list that someone added this caractheristic in a 
personal version. I tried to install that version, but I couldn't.

Therefore, I thing I have two options:
1) Wait and see if you decide to incorporate the changes proposed by 
"[email protected]" (sorry but I couldn't find your name). If so, should I 
wait for a long time?

2) Try to add this feature by myself in the installed version of 
pybliographer. In the bottom window of the main panel where you see all 
the fields of the reference I would like to click in the line containing 
the URL or file location and open an external viewer. Do you think that 
is an easy modification or a lot of work? Which file should I look at to 
add this feature? I am just starting to use python and I think I could 
be able to something like that.

Thanks for your help and for your excellent work with Pybliographer.
Cheers,

Paulo.
