This side project is mainly to help my part-time job, checking for a research group wether the members have new publications that are not yet listed on their website.

To run the graphic interface, type

``$ python UI.py''

fillout at minimal the Last name, and First name of the author. And a list needed to be update will be in the output first_name.txt.

The crawler send query request to adsabs.harvard.edu, and gathers the publication informations that matches the author, parses them, and output a list of reference in AGU style, in reverse chronological order.

optionally, can provide a already existing list to check against, in paper.txt, and abst.txt respectively for peer-reviewd paper and published abstracts.

Note, the abstracts references are not yet in AGU style. Maybe add this feature later.
