customizing layouts?

1999-03-06 Thread jph


For instance, I need to add a constant eps letterhead insert at the top of the 
page, another one at the bottom.
I need to modify letter.outlay, letter.lyx (and stdletter.inc it seems).

Any suggestion other than do it in Latex?
A good outlay/template doc/tutorial would be most useful.

lyx on SGI

1999-02-24 Thread jph



 jph I just installed lyx-1.0 on irix 6.5.2 with development option.
 jph I had previously installed gcc and gnu-make which are used by
 jph default.
 
 jph No major problem so far, although configure warned that Xpm was a
 jph rather oldish version with threats of 'weird crashes'.  No
 jph problem installing teTeX/xforms either.
 
 jph Only glitches so far: -WARNING: plp: context IRQ out of
 jph order-stop printing 
 ?? What is that?

please ignore

 
 jph -what looks for lpr does not find it-calllp by hand
 
 And is that a problem on your system?

yes, see below

I first thought my install was successful, 
but i am now discovering problems
some of which i have not yet fixed. Help welcome :-)

1 i could not print direct from menu, a dvips config problem
  (no native lpr here)
  in /usr/local/teTeX/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps need to edit
line: o |lpr 
into: o |lp

==

2 i could print Intro and Tutorial (with some 
mentions of Tex errors and wrong parameters), 
but UserGuide wont print beyond page 16:
[30 Tex errors detected, you should try to fix them]

UsrGuide.log looks like this:
.
[16]
! Undefined control sequence.
\reserved@a -\@nil 

l.4688 \texttt{\~{}/.lyx/lyxrc}
%
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
.etc, etc...

is this a doc, lyx, teTeX or sgi install problem? 
--i don't know.
  
===

3. i have not yet located a source of Xpm version 4.7 for irix
