I am trying to move to using biblatex
with Biber rather than BibTeX. unfortunately, nearly all of my BibTeX entries have keys that include colons and parentheses. like,
@BOOK{Chambers+Hastie:(92),
editor = {Chambers, John M. and Hastie, Trevor J.},
year = 1992,
title = {Statistical Models in S},
publisher = {Wadsworth and Brooks/Cole Advanced Books and Software},
address = {Pacific Grove, CA},
annote = {tree,glm,splus},
}
this is something Biber apparently doesn't care for. Is there a workaround that doesn't involve changing all my .bib
files?

don't pose a problem. You could probably make a feature request as I don't think this behaviour is intended (I could be wrong, though). – cgnieder Feb 2 '13 at 14:47.blg
