Dutch LyX
Dear LyX users, I would like to write my reports in dutch, but I don't have a 'patch' that makes all LyX inputs dutch (for example: Abstract, References, etc..). How can I change this so that I can easially switch between dutch and english? I am not really handy with all this MikTeX stuff, so I hope you guys can help me out! Thanks! Tim

How can I change this so that I can easially switch between dutch and english? Select dutch in Document-Settings-Language. This will load the dutch hyphenation patterns, enable dutch spell checking and translate strings like References, Chapter etc. in the output. To select different languages for single paragraphs or expressions, use Edit-Text Style-Language. The strings remain untranslated (i.e., English) in the LyX work area, though. The reason is that the dutch translation of the LyX user interface has not been maintained since March 2003 and was removed from the release (since it does not have the minimum number of required translations). If you feel like it, you're welcome to get the dutch translation into shape again. All that it needs is a text editor and dutch language skills: http://www.lyx.org/devel/translation.php http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyx-devel/trunk/README.localization If you're interested, contact the lyx-docs (at) lists (dot) lyx (dot) org Jürgen
