Double-click to use

You can find cnki2bib.exe in your Python/Scripts and set it as the default program to open the .net file.

Then when you double-click a .net file, the corresponding BibTeX Entries will be copied to your clipboard, and a .bib file would be created on the same directory.

Use the console to check for Exception if it does not work as expected, and issue is welcomed.

Export NoteExpress .net File on CNKI

Copy NoteExpress Entry content to the clipboard.

You have to enable Flash to see the "Copy to clipboard" button.

Then just run cnki2bib in the terminal. The corresponding BibTeX Entries will be copied to your clipboard, and an 'out.bib' file is created at the current directory. 😄
