Re: change xml info when exporting to LyXHTML

very different from your HTML styles. This is all accomplished with a very easy to write Python program that will postprocess the exported file in a half a second. If the exported file is *really* well formed XML, you can check it with my xmlchecker.py shown at http://troubleshooters.com/we

Re: License Agreement Entitlement Query

I wouldn't suggest replying to these guys. They're trying to put the LyX project in the role of their lawyer, without payment. Personally, I think the GPL2 is clear enough for me to stake my business on, but if they have questions, they can hire a lawyer. Or, if they don't like the project not

Re: EPUB converter

Hi Ken, I suggest you put it out. The LyX project has a 15 year history of outputting pidgeon HTML incapable of building a *semantic* ePub, claiming what they've done is good enough, and treating with hostility my observations that they're prematurely converting style to appearance. The LyX
