I see, I did not realize that LaTeX does not support unicode. I suppose that it never will, from what I've been reading the past few days it looks like there will be no new features added. In any case, my language does not support hyphenation! Maybe that is the reason that I hate reading hyphenated documents in English. >> No, from the characters, as stated above. > > Still, a keyboard switch "hotkey" could also be programmed to send a > language changing command to lyx via the lyxserver. > I would very much like to know how to do that. >> ...
