Upgrade StorageBibtex import of German Character {\ss} not working
Hi,
I'm from Germany and I want to import my existing bib files.
The German Latex encolded character {\ss} is not properly translated into "ß". It
occurs as \ss in Zotero. Latex encoded umlauts, however, are properly translated.
When I manually change the \ss to "ß" in Zotero directly, and re-export the entry
it is correctly exported as {\ss}. Re-importing the exported entry causes the same problem.
Any ideas?

Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/BibTeX.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data).
It should start working again. If this works for you, please post here so that I can submit this change to be pushed to all users.
thanks for your help. I tried it and it works fine.
Other BibTeX people: Can you see if there's anything wrong with the changes I made? It would previously turn {\ss} into \s{s}, which was clearly a problem.
