Hi list,
quite often I would like to insert the actual date (and time) into my
LyX text as a string. (Printing the document this date would be always
the same in contrast to \today.)
Does anybody have an idea how this could be realised in LyX? As menu
item? As Icon? As key stroke sequence (which I would prefer ;-)?
Actually I'm using LyX-1.3.5 with KDE-3.4 but in a few days I will start
using LyX-1.4.2 with KDE-3.5.2 on my new machine.

Half an answer: Type M-x to open the command minibuffer, then
date-insert (enter) in the minibuffer to insert the date at the current
cursor position. You could bind the date-insert command to a key
combination for easy access. I don't know any way to insert the current
time, though. Maybe something with a shell script? (Or bug the
developers to add a time-insert LFUN?)
