This is the seventh +maintenance release in the 2.3.x series. We encourage all users to +upgrade to this version. + +You can download LyX 2.3.7 from https://www.lyx.org/Download/. + +LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based +on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is +released under a Free and Open Source Software license. + +LyX 2.3.7 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version +more reliable and more stable. Since it has been quite a long time (for +unsurprising reasons) since the last update, this one contains more fixes +than usual. We have fixed a number of crashes. + +If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.7, please open a bug report at +https://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it +really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel +<at> lists.lyx.org) and ask. + +If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the documentation +that comes with LyX (under the Help or Apple menu) and the LyX wiki, which +is at https://wiki.lyx.org/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the +LyX users' list (lyx-users <at> lists.lyx.org), where you will find an +active community of people who are ready to help. + +We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.3.7. + +The LyX team. +https://www.lyx.org + + +What's new +========== + +** Updates: +*********** + +* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT + +- Support \bigtimes from the mathtools package (bug 11223). + +- Support 0x019b via tipa (bug 12426). + + +* USER INTERFACE + +- If the bibliography processor requested by a document is not available, do not + silently fall back to default.
