Re: LyX 1.3.7pre6 available
I don't use Windows, so please pardon me if this is too obvious. I'm installing LyX/Win for a friend. This may fall under the cleaning out redundant programs category. Does installing a newer LyX replace the older LyX in Windows (as it may in Linux)? A few months ago, I installed lyx-1.3.6 with the installer that refers to other sites from which Python, shell, MikTeX and other things are installed. That works. When 1.3.7 came out, I pointed and clicked in lyx.org and (mistakenly) used Uwe Stöhr's installer for Lyx-1.3.7pre6. It was a mistake because I was not alert to realize that was the pre-release lyx. Now I need to install the 1.3.7 final release. If I uninstall 1.3.7pre6, does it take away with it all of the support programs that it installed (sh.exe, all that other stuff)? Does the supported LyX windows installer co-operate with Uwe's all-in-one installer? I mean, if I install 1.3.7, will it erase 1.3.7pre6 automatically?

No, only the programs that were installed together with LyXWinInstaller will be removed (you will also be asked). For more details have a look in the Readme file of the installer.

When you install LyX (no matter which installer you use) already installed programs won't be erased/overwritten. That means that you can have two or more LyX versions installed. To update from 1.3.7pre use the uninstaller and then reinstall LyX using version 1.0 of my installer or the official 1.3.7 installer. regards Uwe

LyX 1.3.7pre6 available
Dear all, I've just uploaded LyX 1.3.7pre6 to the wiki. Grab it from http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyX137pre Improvements over LyX 1.3.7pre5: * Many changes to qt-mt3.dll. * Update of Danish, Hungarian and Spanish translations. * Add a Polish Translation to the Windows Installer. * Speed up the searching for math fonts. * Small bug fix to the sciword bindings. As ever, the changes to qt-mt3.dll may or may not make the thing more stable ;-) Caveat emptor. No doubt Uwe will be packaging this up in his super installer as time allows. Regards, Angus
