I suppose, and really long-term maybe that'd be even better. My dream---I
seem to have a lot of these---is for Flex insets that take arguments. So you
click on the button and you get a dialog, where you can enter additional
arguments.
This would be a shared dream, then. :) A variation, to be precise.
The current solutions (the Schunk environment and the use of Sweave
code in ERT insets) are awkward or require unnecessary and
prone-to-error typing. I'd much like to come up with a native LyX
inset for the Sweave code chunks, a design I've once described here
[1]. In short, it would be similar to ERT boxes (1), wrap the contents
of the inset within the "<<>>=" and "@" character and would accept
arguments that would be inserted between "<<" and">>=" from above.
At the time Jürgen was saying that something might be on the cards in
the future. Does 2.0 bring anything new on this front? Or is it a long
way off?
It won't happen until 2.1, I'm afraid, as trunk is closed for major new
features. But it is very much on
my radar.
