Hi,

thanks for your report.  The function in question is part of `bibtex.el'
which in return is part of Emacs itself and not AUCTeX.  I'm CC'ing
bibtex maintainer asking him if he could have a look at your
suggestion.  If you don't receive an answer in due time, please consider
reporting this issue as an Emacs bug.

@Roland: Can you please have a look at the report below?  TIA.

I will close this report since it doesn't apply to AUCTeX.

Best, Arash

Hi,

The bibtex-generate-autokey function uses 'bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings' to substitute special or accented characters or ligatures with ascii characters.

I noticed that it doesn't lead to the intended behaviour for '\oe' and '\OE', which get converted to 'oee' rather than 'oe'. On the other hand, '\o', '\"o', and their capitalized counterparts are correctly converted to 'oe' (and also '\ae' to 'ae').

This quirk seems to be fixed if '\o' and '\oe' are swapped in bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings. Then all variants are correctly converted.

So I propose to change the current bibtex-autokey-name-change-strings into

'(("\\\\aa" . "a")
   ("\\\\AA" . "A")
   ("\\\"a\\|\\\\\\\"a\\|\\\\ae" . "ae")
   ("\\\"A\\|\\\\\\\"A\\|\\\\AE" . "Ae")
   ("\\\\i" . "i")
   ("\\\\j" . "j")
   ("\\\\l" . "l")
   ("\\\\L" . "L")
   ("\\\"o\\|\\\\\\\"o\\|\\\\oe\\|\\\\o" . "oe")
   ("\\\"O\\|\\\\\\\"O\\|\\\\OE\\|\\\\O" . "Oe")
   ("\\\"s\\|\\\\\\\"s\\|\\\\3" . "ss")
   ("\\\"u\\|\\\\\\\"u" . "ue")
   ("\\\"U\\|\\\\\\\"U" . "Ue")
   ("\\\\`\\|\\\\'\\|\\\\\\^\\|\\\\~\\|\\\\=\\|\\\\\\.\\|\\\\u\\|\\\\v\\|\\\\H\\|\\\\t\\|\\\\c\\|\\\\d\\|\\\\b" . "")
   ("[`'\"{}#]" . "")
   ("\\\\-" . "")
   ("\\\\?[ 	\n]+\\|~" . " "))

Cheers!
