Hi all, I have a suggestion to make it much easier for a LyX user to develop home grown layouts.
For me, 95% of the development time in making a layout is debugging. What balloons debugging time by a factor of 10 is the need to Edit->Reconfigure and then quit and restart LyX every time you make a change to the layout file. It's horrid. If someone could either change LyX so it rereads the layout file on the fly, or develops a workaround or kludge so I could just run a command that does all that stuff and allows me to continue in my current LyX session, it would make layout creation a ton easier, and would kill a main source of resistance to LyX -- inability to easily make your own layout files.
