associate PDFs from giant folder with Zotero entries
So, I’ve got a big folder of hundreds of PDFs that I need to associate with Zotero entries (imported from my bibtex). Each file has a name that corresponds to the citation key (except the pdf is capitalized, eg. key: sharp1984 corresponds to Sharp1984.pdf). In addition, most of the entries have a tex.localfile=path/to/paper/papername.pdf in the “Extra” field. I’m using Linux and I’m comfortable writing scripts. Is there any way that I can do this association automatically?

realtime99If you figure out a way, please post it—I may have to do this in the future.

dstillman@ephicks: It could be scripted fairly easily from the Run JavaScript window, but you'd have to poke around the JS API (which is mostly just documented in the codebase).
