Hi all, You know how there's a command to print LaTeX in a very decorative way? I need something similar to print the word "ex" so readers understand I'm speaking of the ex editor, and not an ex girlfriend or ex posto facto or something. I know how to use a character style and link it to a command -- I just need to know how to make something decorative within the LaTeX I have on my system (I think it's standard texmf).
I don't know how to incorporate the fonts in /usr/share/texmf/fonts into LyX. I have a feeling that a wierd, decorative font would do the trick. In the meantime, so I can continue writing my book til I find out, I'm just gonna make the character style print ex big and black. When I get something more decorative I'll change the layout to change the appearance of every occurrence of ex (and that, my friends, is why I wanted character styles all these years :-) Thanks SteveT Steve Litt Author: Universal Troubleshooting Process books and courseware http://www.troubleshooters.com/
