Hello LyX testers,
I uploaded an installer for the second release candidate of the upcoming LyX
version 1.6.0 for Windows.
NOTE: LyX 1.6rc2 is not a stable release! That means it is stable enough for
testing, but expect
inconsistencies and regressions. This preview release is build for interested
LyX users who want
to check out the new features of LyX.
The new features of LyX are listed here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16
! THIS LYX VERSION SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANYTHING ELSE THAN TESTING !
-----
The installer for this version can be downloaded from:
http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117&release_id=15072
(General infos about the installer can be found here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller )
This LyX version can be installed side by side to an existing LyX 1.5
installation when you uncheck
the installer option update the ".lyx" file extension settings. It will be installed
as "LyX
1.6.0rc2".

!Important note!: Due to a bug in LyX you are first be able to export documents to e.g. PDF after
opening the preferences dialog and clicking there on the save button.
happy testing and best regards
Uwe
