View-LyX
Hi, I'd like to add a LyX item to my View menu (I'm using 1.1.6fix2), which would launch a text viewer/editor on a temporary copy of the current opened lyx document. Ok, that wouldn't be a major feature... It's just because I'm sometimes curious, but also easily bored with saving files, launching programs, and opening files again..., each time I'm wondering something about the lyx format. I've managed to do it for Latex, just adding gvim in the Preference-Converters-Format-LaTeX-Viewer, but it doesn't seems to work with LyX. What exactly does the ViewFormats item in the ui file refer to? I also tried to do my stuff creating a new file format, namely LyxCopy, with cat as an export converter (yes, there's a long story between cats and me, but I think I've already written you about that;), which would have gvim as a viewer. But it doesn't appear neither in the View menu, nor in the Export one. So a second question is: what exactly can Converters do? Are they only used as import features? Thanks for your lights, -- Thomas.

View->LyX
Hi, I'd like to add a "LyX" item to my View menu (I'm using 1.1.6fix2), which would launch a text viewer/editor on a temporary copy of the current opened lyx document. Ok, that wouldn't be a major feature... It's just because I'm sometimes curious, but also easily bored with saving files, launching programs, and opening files again..., each time I'm wondering something about the lyx format. I've managed to do it for Latex, just adding "gvim" in the Preference->Converters->Format->LaTeX->Viewer, but it doesn't seems to work with LyX. What exactly does the "ViewFormats" item in the ui file refer to? I also tried to do my stuff creating a new file format, namely LyxCopy, with "cat" as an export converter (yes, there's a long story between cats and me, but I think I've already written you about that;), which would have gvim as a viewer. But it doesn't appear neither in the View menu, nor in the Export one. So a second question is: what exactly can Converters do? Are they only used as import features?
