MultiMarkdown Chicago Style

Hi everyone,

New to this forum and to Zotero, but tonight I modified the Chicago (full note) style for anyone out there like me who might doing their work in Multimarkdown in Scrivener or any plain text editor. Here is a link to the GitHub repository for the code:

https://gist.github.com/1786800

Basically, I just changed italicized titles to the Markdown "*Title*" format, and I also eliminated the period at the end of notes so that I could include page numbers using Zotero abbreviations, for example {Sterne 2003}, 15-21.

Hope some of you find it useful.

    Hi,
    I don't know java, but I've been using Zotero for over four years. So I sometimes give a try on customizing translators and CSL. :-)

    I associated the syntax of a BibTex citation key (in this thread: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/5094/drag-and-drop-bibtex-cite/)to the idea of a Multimarkdown citation anchors. Both may be unique, and it's been working fine, so far.
    So, If you are writing a text, simply drag and drop (or copy with ctrl+shift+c) your reference to the citation place.
    An anchor for (using Fletcher's example):

    John Doe. *Some Big Fancy Book*. Vanity Press, 2006.

    ...may look like [#doe_some_2006]

    Here is the code:

    I hope it's useful...
  • Ideally, some programming expert may join both Craig's csl with this format and come out with a way to drag and drop the bibliography list...
    So far, I'm dealing with some "raw" tricks using word find/replace and an excel table to do it... :-)
