Hi LyXers,

(I'm using 1.3.4)

are there any plans to support booktabs.sty tabulars? I've searched on
google and on the lyx mailing list archive, but found only traces of a
discussion about booktabs. For those who don't know it: booktabs.sty
replaces the \hline command in tabulars with \toprule, \midrule and
\bottomrule commands of different width and improves the vertical
spacing in tabs (more space between text and rules). It also works
together with longtable. ATM it isn't even possible to issue these
commands via ERT when setting a width to the tab-columns as ERT commands
are always put inside the parbox.

(Now my girlfriend is angry with me as she doesn't like it when I
postedit her LyX-Files in LaTeX. ;) )

BTW, it would also be great if the ragged2e style file could be
supported, which provide improved flushleft environments (better
hyphenation), which are especially usefull for text in tabulars.

I'd love to hear comments about these things!

Yours,
Karsten
