Feature Request: Support for Multiple Bibliography Files

Description

Currently, BibTool requires that the bibliography is stored in a single file named main.bib. However, collaborative projects often require management of multiple bibliography files (e.g., one for each chapter or topic). It would be beneficial to allow users to define and manage multiple .bib files within the same project.

Proposed Solution

  • Introduce a configuration option in the tokens.json file that allows specifying multiple bibliography files.
  • Update the server logic to handle multiple .bib files, including the permissions for each file defined per token.
  • Ensure that the client can interact with multiple files, including adding, modifying, and retrieving entries from the corresponding bibliographies.

Benefits

  • Improved organization of references for larger projects, helping authors manage citations more effectively.
  • Enhanced collaboration, particularly in teams where different contributors may be responsible for different parts of the document.

I believe this feature would greatly enhance the flexibility and usability of BibTool for collaborative LaTeX projects.
