I've installed Python 2.5 and elyxer (along with LyX 1.6.1) under
Windows XP. What, exactly is the command to type just to try what is
described in the docs:
cd lyx16\elyxer\docs
..\elyxer userguide.lyx userguide.html
Of course that won't work in Windows, since Windows doesn't know that
elyxer is a python script. So I did two things: First, I changed the
name from "elyxer" to "elyxer.py". And second, I tried this command:
python -c ../elyxer.py userguide.lyx userguide.html
When Python starts, I get error message:
File "<string>", line 1
../elyxer.py
^
(I tried using both the Windows backward slash \ and the *nix forward
slash/ but neither works.)
Once again, I'm stymied by something allegedly ported from *nix to
Windows and either not working as it should or else not documented
correctly.
What's the fix (beside fixing me_?
