Dear Robby,

too sad, I already tried that. Is there another option to cite more
comfortably than copying each and every line by hand? Maybe a way to
copy a bunch of infos like author, title, etc... into the clipboard.
Just the way it already works for bibtex, but with some more
information, meaning some relevant fields. So that one could easily
paste afterwards.

Any option like this would really help making tellico more comfortable
for authors. 

Ciao and thanks so far,
Frank
