There's the need for a precisation.
Actually, my "drastic" correction is useful only either if you will always use
LyX to write moderncv
documents, or if you will always append 1 or 2 empty lines after every
\section{} entry in your
plaintext moderncv documents, e.g.
something like this:
<LaTeX>
\section{Professional Experience}
\cventry{Jul--Aug 2007}{foo}{bar}{?}{?}{?}
</LaTeX>
wouldn't work with my correction, but you would need to write this:
<LaTeX>
\section{Professional Experience}
\cventry{Jul--Aug 2007}{foo}{bar}{?}{?}{?}
</LaTeX>
or
<LaTeX>
\section{Professional Experience}\\
\cventry{Jul--Aug 2007}{foo}{bar}{?}{?}{?}
</LaTeX>
Under these 2 circumstances one can safely add my correction.
Thank you for your kind attention ;-) !
