Note to beta testers: I installed 1.4.0pre2 parallel to 1.3.7 (Win XP
Pro), and when 1.4.0 rewrote my preferences file, all the viewer
settings were vaporized. No big deal to get them back, once the
defibrillator brought *me* back.
The solution is to use the -userdir options. Make a shortcut of lyx
1.4.0 executable, right-click on the short-cut and click properties. If
"paul" is your login, on the "target" field add this at the end of the
path to the lyx executable:
-userdir "C:\Documents and Settings\paul\Application Data\LyX-1.4"
Angus, if you're reading, it might be a good idea to make this the
default as 1.3 and 1.4 have incompatible settings.
Hope this helps,
Abdel.
