This little #zsh script gets abstract from #PubMed and copies to the clipboard. Useful if you need to update #BibTex entries, e.g. in #JabRef. Requires #curl and #xclip, supports PMID, PMC and DOI identifiers.

@adam_wysokinski I suggest we integrate this into JabRef if it's not already possible

@jabref That would be great. If you need any help of mine in this, just let me know.

@adam_wysokinski Tested a bit and found that we already fetch the abstract when you do it via: New Entry -> Medline/pubemd and then enter the PMID, e.g. 36739462
But updating existing entries is not yet possible with Medline/Pubmed. That would be a good use case I think

@jabref That was the point - to update entries already in the database. Also, there should be an option to do it in bulk, for multiple entries.
