Hi, Thanks for the hints! :) For some reason my new Cygwin did not download python. After I installed python, LyX 1.3.0 seems to work find with my old lyx files. But I must say, I wonder how a person with no IT programming experience could install LyX on Windows; it is too difficult I think.
Again, thanks all! :) Regards Goffredo > > From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: ERROR: error on running conversion script.
