Estimada Ana, el idioma de la lista es el inglés, garantizando así una
mayor colaboración de parte de los miembros. Puedes escribir en inglés
(y por favor, no todo en mayúsculas)?

No hay un formato estándard en LyX/Latex para hacer tesis doctorales.
Hay muchos para hacer libros, de los que puedes usar algún estilo. Sin
embargo, hay mucha gente que lo ha hecho y ha definido los estándares
que les han sido requeridos por sus respectivas universidades. Para
eso, te recomiendo ver:

http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Thesis

Un saludo.

Dear Ana, the language used in the list is English, making it possible
for more people to collaborate. Can you write in english (and please,
not all caps)?

There is not LyX/LaTeX standard layout/class for PhD Thesis. There are
many for books, of which you can choose and work over. Nonetheless,
there is many people who has already done it and who has defined a
layout/class based on the standards required by their universities.

Hi Ana!

Please, take into account that this is an English speaking list!

Find below a tentative translation of your question:

I would like to use LyX to write my Ph.D. Thesis on Systems 
engineering. May I customize LyX to fit the requirements of my institution?


And here a tentative answer:

Yes, you can! I think the best path is to look for classes and packages 
a available for writing thesis and, once you get a clear idea about how 
LyX behaves, go to the Customization manual available in the LyX's help 
menu.


This could be a good starting point...

http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Thesis

I am new to LyX myself and I've found LyX wiki, documentation and great 
users' list really helpful. Nevertheless, none of these sources of 
information would avoid that you must spent a number of ours working out 
entry level problems and doubts! Feel free to contact me in Spanish is 
you want, but would consider this English speaking list as the right 
place to get answers!


Hope this helps,

Ricardo

Re: install latest lyx

[Julien Rioux]

For the benefit of everyone, here's a step by step guide of how I 
successfully compiled and installed lyx on ubuntu linux, from the 
subversion source code repository. I never went back.


A) Downloading the source code
--

First you want the source files. There are two main development lines, 
one is the trunk, which will be named 2.0 when it is released, and one 
is the 1.6.x branch, which includes bug fixes and some new features. 
Major new features are being developed in trunk, then selectively added 
to the 1.6.x branch. So trunk is bleeding edge and can sometimes break 
things, branch is stable. That's why I recommend the branch.


To get these files and put them in your lyx-devel folder, you would do

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_6_X lyx-devel

If you prefer trunk, then:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel

Use either command, not both. You then will see the tree of the lyx 
source files being downloaded to your lyx-devel folder. Once you have 
the code, you can do with it as you please. What you probably want to 
do, is compile the code.


B) Compiling


Compiling requires some dependencies. The easy thing to do on ubuntu, 
which might just work, is to try


sudo apt-get build-dep lyx

This should do it. If you get strange errors while compiling later on, 
we would have to revisit this assumption.


Let's say you want this compiled version of lyx to be called lyx-svn. 
The compilation process, or build process, for that is


cd lyx-devel
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-version-suffix=-svn
make

C) Install
--

Next step is to install. Some people have mentioned stow. I have never 
used it, but I am sure it is a good idea. Anyway, the easy way is to


sudo make install

Since in the build step we named our compiled version lyx-svn, it 
should not cause problems. Now you can summon


lyx-svn

to launch your shiny new lyx.

D) Keeping up-to-date
-

When we first downloaded the source files, we took a snapshot of the 
code at the current time. If you want the latest bug fixes and features 
that were included since that time by the wonderful developers, you will 
have to update the source, recompile, and reinstall. In short:


cd lyx-devel
svn update
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-version-suffix=-svn
make
sudo make install

E) Getting additional help
--

With the lyx source code comes extra text files with information about 
installing and other topics. Check out INSTALL and README, in 
particular, and see what's in there. Use whatever is convenient for you 
to read those text files. Come back to this mailing list for help when 
in trouble. Hopefully, all you ever want to know is in there. Even 
though it can be quite daunting to compile lyx on your own, it is good 
to learn to use these tools. You will find that many open source 
projects use similar build procedure. You often benefit by compiling 
yourself.


Good luck,
Julien

Re: Is RTL a goal for 2.x?

[Dotan Cohen]

I see that there is definitely RTL support, the Lyx interface and
default document were in Hebrew for me!

However, when I start a new document and type in Hebrew, each
individual word looks fine (the order of the letters in a word are
correctly RTL) but the words themselves are incorrectly ordered LTR
(the first word on the left, the last word on the right). Also, the
punctuation at the end of the sentence is incorrectly on the right.

I have gone through the options and read through these documents but I
cannot figure out what I must do:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/HebrewOnLinux
http://sites.google.com/site/avivgoll/articles/hebrewenabledlyxonubuntu904

Note that the F12 script on the second link has no effect for me. I am
on Kubuntu 9.10 using Lyx 2.0.0svn (built today).

Thanks.

Hi Wolfgang,
Too much has happened while I was sleeping :-). Julien's step-by-step
guide is exactly what I would recommend - except, of course, that I
would use GNU STOW to install. As Julien indicates, this should not be
a major problem if you stick to the naming conventions that he
recommends.

In answer to your specific question, you will have the 1.6 version
installed. If you really want the trunk version (2.0 candidate) then
the best thing would be to created a new directory with the 2.0 files.
For example:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx20

Then cd lyx20 and follow Julien's instructions, naming the new version
something distinctive: I use ./configure --with-version-suffix=20.

All of this is confusing until you have done it a few times - don't
give up :-).

Cheers,
Alan

Re: install latest lyx

[Julien Rioux]

For the benefit of everyone, here's a step by step guide of how I 
successfully compiled and installed lyx on ubuntu linux, from the 
subversion source code repository. I never went back.


A) Downloading the source code
--

First you want the source files. There are two main development lines, 
one is the trunk, which will be named 2.0 when it is released, and one 
is the 1.6.x branch, which includes bug fixes and some new features. 
Major new features are being developed in trunk, then selectively added 
to the 1.6.x branch. So trunk is bleeding edge and can sometimes break 
things, branch is stable. That's why I recommend the branch.


To get these files and put them in your lyx-devel folder, you would do

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_6_X lyx-devel

If you prefer trunk, then:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel

Use either command, not both. You then will see the tree of the lyx 
source files being downloaded to your lyx-devel folder. Once you have 
the code, you can do with it as you please. What you probably want to 
do, is compile the code.


B) Compiling


Compiling requires some dependencies. The easy thing to do on ubuntu, 
which might just work, is to try


sudo apt-get build-dep lyx

This should do it. If you get strange errors while compiling later on, 
we would have to revisit this assumption.


Let's say you want this compiled version of lyx to be called lyx-svn. 
The compilation process, or build process, for that is


cd lyx-devel
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-version-suffix=-svn
make

C) Install
--

Next step is to install. Some people have mentioned stow. I have never 
used it, but I am sure it is a good idea. Anyway, the easy way is to


sudo make install

Since in the build step we named our compiled version lyx-svn, it 
should not cause problems. Now you can summon


lyx-svn

to launch your shiny new lyx.

D) Keeping up-to-date
-

When we first downloaded the source files, we took a snapshot of the 
code at the current time. If you want the latest bug fixes and features 
that were included since that time by the wonderful developers, you will 
have to update the source, recompile, and reinstall. In short:


cd lyx-devel
svn update
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-version-suffix=-svn
make
sudo make install

E) Getting additional help
--

With the lyx source code comes extra text files with information about 
installing and other topics. Check out INSTALL and README, in 
particular, and see what's in there. Use whatever is convenient for you 
to read those text files. Come back to this mailing list for help when 
in trouble. Hopefully, all you ever want to know is in there. Even 
though it can be quite daunting to compile lyx on your own, it is good 
to learn to use these tools. You will find that many open source 
projects use similar build procedure. You often benefit by compiling 
yourself.


Good luck,
Julien

Re: Is RTL a goal for 2.x?

I see that there is definitely RTL support, the Lyx interface and

However, when I start a new document and type in Hebrew, each

correctly RTL) but the words themselves are incorrectly ordered LTR
(the first word on the left, the last word on the right). Also, the

 and if so, how exactly should this command look like?

Hi Wolfgang,
Too much has happened while I was sleeping :-). Julien's step-by-step
guide is exactly what I would recommend - except, of course, that I
would use GNU STOW to install. As Julien indicates, this should not be
a major problem if you stick to the naming conventions that he
recommends.

In answer to your specific question, you will have the 1.6 version
installed. If you really want the trunk version (2.0 candidate) then
the best thing would be to created a new directory with the 2.0 files.
For example:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx20

Then cd lyx20 and follow Julien's instructions, naming the new version
something distinctive: I use ./configure --with-version-suffix=20.

All of this is confusing until you have done it a few times - don't
give up :-).

Cheers,
Alan

Re: DUDA LYNX

Estimada Ana, el idioma de la lista es el inglés, garantizando así una
mayor colaboración de parte de los miembros. Puedes escribir en inglés
(y por favor, no todo en mayúsculas)?

No hay un formato estándard en LyX/Latex para hacer tesis doctorales.
Hay muchos para hacer libros, de los que puedes usar algún estilo. Sin
embargo, hay mucha gente que lo ha hecho y ha definido los estándares
que les han sido requeridos por sus respectivas universidades. Para
eso, te recomiendo ver:

http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Thesis

Un saludo.

Dear Ana, the language used in the list is English, making it possible
for more people to collaborate. Can you write in english (and please,
not all caps)?

There is not LyX/LaTeX standard layout/class for PhD Thesis. There are
many for books, of which you can choose and work over. Nonetheless,
there is many people who has already done it and who has defined a
layout/class based on the standards required by their universities.

Re: DUDA LYNX

[[Ricardo Rodriguez] eBioTIC.]

Hi Ana!

Please, take into account that this is an English "speaking" list!

Find below a tentative translation of your question:

"I would like to use LyX to write my Ph.D. Thesis on Systems 
engineering. May I customize LyX to fit the requirements of my institution?"


And here a tentative answer:

Yes, you can! I think the best path is to look for classes and packages 
a available for writing thesis and, once you get a clear idea about how 
LyX behaves, go to the Customization manual available in the LyX's help 
menu.


This could be a good starting point...

http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Thesis

I am new to LyX myself and I've found LyX wiki, documentation and great 
users' list really helpful. Nevertheless, none of these sources of 
information would avoid that you must spent a number of ours working out 
entry level problems and doubts! Feel free to contact me in Spanish is 
you want, but would consider this English speaking list as the right 
place to get answers!


Hope this helps,

Ricardo

Re: install latest lyx

[Julien Rioux]

For the benefit of everyone, here's a step by step guide of how I 
successfully compiled and installed lyx on ubuntu linux, from the 
subversion source code repository. I never went back.


A) Downloading the source code
--

First you want the source files. There are two main development "lines", 
one is the "trunk", which will be named 2.0 when it is released, and one 
is the 1.6.x "branch", which includes bug fixes and some new features. 
Major new features are being developed in trunk, then selectively added 
to the 1.6.x branch. So trunk is "bleeding edge" and can sometimes break 
things, branch is stable. That's why I recommend the branch.


To get these files and put them in your lyx-devel folder, you would do

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_6_X lyx-devel

If you prefer trunk, then:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel

Use either command, not both. You then will see the tree of the lyx 
source files being downloaded to your lyx-devel folder. Once you have 
the code, you can do with it as you please. What you probably want to 
do, is compile the code.


B) Compiling


Compiling requires some dependencies. The easy thing to do on ubuntu, 
which might just work, is to try


sudo apt-get build-dep lyx

This should do it. If you get strange errors while compiling later on, 
we would have to revisit this assumption.

Hi Wolfgang,
Too much has happened while I was sleeping :-). Julien's step-by-step
guide is exactly what I would recommend - except, of course, that I
would use GNU STOW to install. As Julien indicates, this should not be
a major problem if you stick to the naming conventions that he
recommends.

In answer to your specific question, you will have the 1.6 version
installed. If you really want the trunk version (2.0 candidate) then
the best thing would be to created a new directory with the 2.0 files.
For example:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx20

Then cd lyx20 and follow Julien's instructions, naming the new version
something distinctive: I use ./configure --with-version-suffix=20.

All of this is confusing until you have done it a few times - don't
give up :-).

Cheers,
Alan
