Hi,
Is there is a way to produce ascii file with no limit to lenght of
line for each bloc text ?
Add this to your .lyx/preferences file. (If the file doesn't exist,
create a new one.)
\ascii_linelen your_length
Alternatively, use the Preferences dialog (Edit->Preferences) and the
Outputs->ASCII pane (Qt) or Outputs->Misc tab (xforms)
That will put set the linelength for each paragraph.
If you really want a file with no line breaks, use sed. Eg
sed ':loop
$!{
N
s/\n/ /
tloop
}' your_file.txt > a_file_with_a_single_really_long_line.txt
Of course, this assumes that you are using an OS that has sed (-;
Thank you for answer. (I appreciate your useful sed loop ;-)
But i guess my question wasn't well expressed. I'm not a great english
spoken man, so i joined a little sample of what i would. (cf attaced file)
I don't found a way to do that with Lyx but it would be very useful to
export into scribus for exemple (i 'm grafic designer).
Is the best way to make a bash script, lyx files to
well_done_ascii_as_i_want ?
best regards,
Antony
This is the lyx ascii output (with 120 line lenght for instance) :
