 heavy use of the `parse_file` and `parse_string` from `zs.bibtex.parser`.
 
-The bibfile must be prepared for importing. First make sure only
-ASCII characters are used. Every `\` must be replaced by `\\\` (note:
-three backslashes). Remove all empty lines at the end of the file.
-
-Copy all pdf files that must be attached to the `/var/www/media/papers/`
-directory. Check if all filenames match the citekeys in the bibfile
-(be aware of Capitals). Also make sure all files have `.pdf` as extension
-and not `.PDF`.
+ * prepare the bibfile for importing
+  * make sure only ASCII characters are used: {{{recode -d u8..latex < in.bib > out.bib}}}
+    * Note: make sure the in.bib file only contains utf-8 without BOM (header?). This can be done in Notepad++
+  * every `\` must be replaced by `\\\` (note: three back slashes)
+  * remove all empty lines at the end of the file.
+ * check if all filenames match the citekeys in the bibfile (be aware of Capitals): {{{> LANG=C; ls}}}
+ * also make sure all files have `.pdf` as extension and not `.PDF`: {{{> ls | grep -v pdf}}}
+ * copy all pdf files that must be attached to the `/var/www/media/papers/` directory.
 
 After that check the bibfile in python with the `parse_file` routine:
 
 {{{
-$ python manage.py shell
+$ python
 >>> from zs.bibtex.parser import parse_file
 >>> a = parse_file("bladiebla.bib")
+>>> a.__len__()
 }}}
