Hi,

Z F <[email protected]> was heard to say:

Not quite. The server checks for the string "ALL", so the argument is case
sensitive. "all" seems to work better in your experiments due to a bug that I
just discovered. For some reasons, retrieving extended notes along with a
reference ceased to work. For the time being you should avoid using "ALL" and
list the additional fields explicitly.

To reproduce the problem, try

getref :ID:=1 -s ALL

This will fail, just like

getref :ID:=1 -s NX

whereas

getref :ID:=1 -s URL1L2L3L4N1N2AVRP

works ok.

I'll have to find out what's going wrong with the extended notes.

regards,
Markus
