I assume that reLyX could handle that with a special flag. I've always
hated german.sty for such a stupid convention. It is a great pain in
LyX (along with spanish.sty brilliant ~n convention...).

Andre'> replaced by 'native' LyX, like \newcommand{\p}{\partial}.

Mathed does have support for math macros (but you already know that,
don't you?). However, reLyX is not able to translate macros on-the-fly
for mathed.

I do not think so...
Andre'> Lastly, the killer: Equations (don't ask me why anybody would

Andre'> the 'invisible' parts by means of a horizontal scrollbar or
Andre'> something like that. This, of course, make editing the stuff a
Andre'> mess. Has anybody an idea how to work around this one?
It was possible in the old 1.1 branch. So I guess it will be added one
day. (there was a scrollbar for tables too, I think).
