Unfortunately, BibWiki requires a single closing brace on its own line to close a record, while BibDesk as a rule puts the closing brace on the same line as the last field of a record, so I have to run a text search-replace every time I export from BibDesk to BibWiki. A possible solution is to fix the BibWiki parser to be more general in detecting the end of a record, or have it move the curly braces before parsing.

Unfortunately, BibWiki requires a single closing brace on its own line to close a record, while BibDesk as a rule puts the closing brace on the same line as the last field of a record, so I have to run a text search-replace every time I export from BibDesk to BibWiki. A possible solution is to fix the BibWiki parser to be more general in detecting the end of a record, or have it move the curly braces before parsing.
