Hello, I'm a linguistics-student and want to switch from Word to Lyx (on Windows). I have 5 beginner-questions:
1. I've read, that it is needed to install spellcheck-dictionaries for other languages and additional modules (e.g. for linguistic documents) seperately. Where do I find these and how do I install them so that Lyx uses them? 2. Does the bundle-installer that includes all additional software that is needed, install all programs or does it only include these programs but I have to install each of them seperately? 3. If I want to update Lyx do I only have to install the not bundled? But how can I keep Latex, Ghostscript, etc. up to date? 4. I've read on the english download-page that the bundle includes Cygwin. Is this also needed for Lyx on Windows? Because on the german download page is the information, that the cygwin-version is another one. And the bundled version of the english download-page is missing there. 5. How do I enter em-dashes and en-dashes in Lyxx? I hope you can help me, Pascal
