I suppose the following note from the 2.0 RELEASE_NOTES is relevant: "We have introduced a new flag to decide whether or not a given "document" format shall be listed in the File > Export menu. This was necessary since this menu got too large. If the flag "menu=export" is not explicitly set, the formats are not included in the menu. This means that you might need to click "Show in export menu" in Preferences > File Formats for your customized file formats if you want them to appear in the menu. Note, though, that you still can export to any possible format via File > Export > More Formats and Options ..." > One odd thing: whether > Preferences is there or not, the following error lines occur: > > > arcadia:$ LyX: Unknown tag `-lpf' [around line 13 of file > ~/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults current token: '-lpf' context: ''] LyX: Unknown tag > `$$i' [around line 13 of file ~/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults current token: '$$i' > context: ''] LyX: Unknown tag `-mode' [around line 13 of file > ~/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults current token: '-mode' context: ''] LyX: Unknown tag > `EditPosition' [around line 14 of file ~/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults current > token: 'EditPosition' context: ''] > > > The relevant lines in lyxrc.defaults are: > > > \Format dia dia DIA "" > "auto" "auto" "vector" \Format > agr agr Grace "" "auto" "auto" "vector" > \editor_alternatives fen xboard -lpf $$i -mode EditPosition > > Not sure what that means or whether it natters. I believe the problem is that "xboard -lpf $$i -mode EditPosition" is not enquoted. I'll have a look. Jürgen
