[...] > It should be a fairly easy hack to do... Ages ago I wrote lyxport (http://www-hep.colorado.edu/~fperez/lyxport/), a perl script which does lyx/tex->html/pdf/ps. It works reasonably hard to handle various problems with the conversions, image formats, etc. I still find documents (http://ipython.scipy.org/doc/manual for example) which LyX doesn't handle out of the box, but which lyxport manages to plow through. Feel free to snag it for your idea if you think it may help. It's far from perfect (it's in perl, for one :), but it might save you guys some time. Best, Fernando Perez ps. Many thanks for Lyx over the years. One Master's thesis, one PhD thesis, talks, papers, letters, and a bunch of converts in several research groups... I've been a huge fan since the days of 0.10.x. Keep up the good work!
