EndNote X enables users to copy selected text to Mellel or other word processors for efficient document processing.
I recently tried out the Copy Citations to Mellel software and was impressed with its functionality. The software uses UI scripting to copy references selected in the EndNote X library window and paste them in the active window of Mellel or another text editor or word processor.
One important note is that if you want to use this script with another application, you'll need to change the value of the theEditor property from Mellel to the displayed name of that application. Additionally, you should change the name of the script file from "Copy Citations to Mellel" to "Copy Citations to [application name]".
The software relies on EndNote's command-C shortcut and Mellel's command-V shortcut for pasting. If the editor's "Paste" command doesn't have this shortcut or if the shortcut has been reassigned, then the script's results may be unpredictable.
It's worth noting that the script was designed for Mellel, which doesn't support AppleScript. Therefore, if you're using it with another application that supports AppleScript, you should modify the script to paste the references through script commands, which is safer.
Overall, I found Copy Citations to Mellel to be a useful and reliable tool for copying references from EndNote into my writing project. With a few minor modifications for use with other applications, it could be an even more versatile software.
