fbib <DOI or "Full Paper Title">

Accepts bare DOIs (10.1038/nature12373), full DOI URLs, or quoted paper titles for free-text search.

Workflow

1. Fetch the BibTeX entry
2. Find .bib file (check current dir, then parents; common names: references.bib, main.bib)
3. Show the entry and ask user: add to found file, specify different file, or just display
4. If adding: check for duplicate DOI first, then append
