If you want to use it, you need to read a lot of documentation (Customization.lyx) and configure the translator to use the lyxserver (or write a skript that does this) There are lots of non-translabel things in LyX-texts: References, Math, Graphs, ... The app/skript should be made intelligent to be able to find a workaround. For the time being, I use drag and drop: Take the stuff from LyX to a translating website and copy back the result. Then I need to copy and paste the translated parts beween my formula and figures and, of course, do the postprocessing of the machine-translation to proper English, say. BTW: could you recommend a good and free translator program (I am most interested in German <-> Englich)? GM -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
