Replace "your query" with the search term you want (like "patent thickets", making sure to include quotes around the term). Replace "your output directory" with the output directory you want these files to go to. Still using my example above, I would type "E:\McNair\Projects\Patent_Thickets\My_Crawl", making sure to include the quotes around the directory. Finally, replace "your num pages" with the number of pages you want to search. Click the play button in the top center of the screen.
====What you'll get back====
After the program is done running, go back to the folder you created to see the outputs. First, in your BibTeX folder, you will see a series of files named by the BibTeX keys of papers. Each of these is a text file containing the BibTeX for the paper. In your outer folder, you will have a files called "Query_your query_pdfTable7.txt" where "your query" is your search term and 7 can be replaced with any number. Each of these files is a text file of BibTeX keys in the left column and a link to the PDF for that paper in the other column.
====In Progress====
1) Trying to find the sweet spot where we move as fast as possible without being DISCOVERED BY GOOGLE.
2) Trying to make it so that if a link to the PDF cannot be found directly on Google, the link to the journal will be saved so that someone can go look it up and try to download it later.
====Notes====
All BibTeXs for the papers will be saved, but not all PDFs are available online so not all of the papers viewed will have a link.
