 Hello,
 
 what I miss very much from Lyx (which you have in Word and others) is to
 mark a text, and then to drag it with held left mouse to another place in
 the document.
 For me, this saves a lot of cut/paste work.
 
 Any plans to support it? 

I don't know.  But it ist always possible to mark text with the left
mouse (or shift-cursor) and then insert it at some other point by
klicking the middle mouse at that location (without left-clicking there
before!).

Re: lyx: Inverted question mark

 Dear LyX users,
   I have just installed the latest version of lyx and think it
 looks pretty good.  One thing I like about it is its internationalisation
 (?).  My girlfriend is doing a Spanish course so I thought I would set LyX
 up for her to write in Spanish.  If I  use the american-2.kmap I
 have no problems with accents, but I'm not sure how to get an inverted
 question mark.  In latex I think it is just '? and also '! but these will
 need to be set as TeX commands in LyX, and they won't appear on the
 screen.  Is there an easy way to bind a key to this so it appears upside
 down on the screen?

If your X-Server is setup correctly to use the compose key, you can
insert it just by typing "Compose ? ?" and you get "¿" (even works in
other programs like xterm/bash and emacs then...)

 Did anybody succeed in compiling lyx 1.0.0p* on HPUX 10.20 or HPUX

  Yep, works fine on 10.20. Biggest problem was to get a working XForms
  library. I guess I could send out binaries if interested.

Hm, I tried to compile 1.0.0 on an old (HP-UX keto A.09.07 A 9000/705) HP.
configure succeeds, and almost everything compiles, it's only
spellchecker.C that is refusing:

  g++ -c -g -O2 -fpcc-struct-return -I. -I../../src -I../../images \
 -I/usr/X11R6/include ../../src/spellchecker.C

int, int *, int *, int *, const timeval *)'
  gmake: *** [../../src/spellchecker.o] Error 1
  *** Error code 1

This is with XForms 0.88

Re: LyX versions

 Hi,
 
 I haven't been keeping up with the LyX versions (still using 12.1pre5).
 Since I'm ready to submit my thesis which uses the AMS-book class,
 I'd like to ask if there would be
 any visible benefits in formatting/spacing/layout if I go 
 to install the current LyX version ?  Thanks for any tips.

No, why should there?  All the "real" formating of the text is done by
the LaTeX style files and is almost completelt independent of LyX.  All
you might get is a better interface to one or the other LaTeX construct,
but if you already have finished the work of writing, I don't see why
you should upgrade LyX now.

Of course you should upgrade (at least once 1.0 is out), but I wouldn't
do it in a critical phase of my work...

Re: Lyx and make

Uwe Assmann wrote:

 Is there any possiblity to start a 'make' from Lyx? I saw how to let
 Lyx dump a nice version in Latex by echoing a LYXCMD into the
 serverpipe; but I don't see how to start a make from Lyx.  Of course,
 this should be in the background.

Have a look at Chapter 4.4 of the Customization manual, "Notification"
You would have to start a client that waits for the notification
(triggered by a keypress) and then starts a "make".
