LyX always calls lyx2lyx with the right argument, so in theory you should be able to plunge any more recent lyx2lyx into 1.4.x and have it working. > It might be that if you acquire just the lyx2lyx directory > from 1.5.x, and have a reasonably up-to-date version of Python > installed, you could convert recent files backward to 1.4.x. python 2.3.4 > It looks > to me as though the script I have in 1.5.2 is designed for backward as > well as forward conversions.
