General Writing Tools

Propachi, by Frank Bennett, Brenton Wiernik.
- This plugin for rapid-response processor debugging is no longer necessary for that purpose
- Its additional functionality has been superseded by changes in Zotero
- Uppercase Subtitles: Entering titles in “sentence case” is strongly recommended. The first character of a subtitle (following a colon) should be set in lowercase, unless it is a proper noun or acronym. Styles will convert titles to “title case” as necessary. Some citation styles (e.g., APA) require that the first word of subtitles also be uppercase. This plugin can enable such formatting.
- This plugin also patches Zotero's citation processor to the latest version. This plugin is not necessary for most users.
