Hi:
I've been having a lot of trouble installing a new class for LyX with
my mac. I am hoping to use LyX to write my doctoral dissertation. I
am trying to install the thesis class for my university, authesis.cls.
I have followed the directions, I believe, but am not getting the class to work.
I have placed these files (authesis.cls, aucas.clo, aut10.clo,
auecon.clo) in this location:
users/username/library/texmf/tex/latex/authesis/
i have placed a layout file (authesis.layout) at this location:
username/libarary/Application Support/Lyx-1.5/layouts
The layout file reads:
#% Do not delete hte line below; configure depens on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[authesis]{article (authesis)}
# Input general definitions
Input stdclass.inc
After doing this, I open terminal typed "texhash" and then quit terminal
I went to LyX, reconfigure and i get an error message that says, "The
system reconfiguration has failed. Default textclass is used but LyX
may not be able to work properly. Please reconfigure again if needed."
I close LyX, start it again, and then if I go to Document, Settings, I
do not see the authesis in the document class menu(and the number of
classes I have listed is now much smaller than before i tried to
install this class).
Can someone help? I would very greatly appreciate it! I am very new
to both LyX and my Mac.
Thanks,
Mike
