Hi,

Yesterday I applied the tracking changes patch to my Lyx on my Linux box and the tracking works ok with a few caveats.

However I work with a colleague who uses word to write documents and he might be convinced to use lyx if tracking were implemented.

Is it possible to apply the tracking change to the windows lyx version (he uses windows) or will it be necessary to wait for version 1.4?

Sure. The source for linux and for Windows is identical, so if the patch can be applied on linux it can also be applied on Windows. Building takes a while but the scripts in development/Win32/packaging should automate the process.

See

for how I go about packaging LyX 1.3.x on Windows.
