Hello!
I'm very new to LaTeX, but as a linguist I am becoming more dependent on it
every day. However, my only very basic knowledge of LaTeX is preventing me
from solving this simple problem.
As a linguist, I included the Linguistics module in LyX. Now I have these
new 'Example' options in the top-left drop-down box, that I use for
selecting the style of a particular line. However, this 'Example' option
(which I need to use at this moment) isn't working! When I add an example,
LaTeX gives me the following error when I try to preview the file:
! LaTeX Error: Command \example already defined.
Or name \end... illegal, see p.192 of the manual.
followed by a bunch more errors.
It appears that the problem is inside covington.sty, as that's the last
file mentioned before latex bails out.
I can export the LyX-generated LaTeX into an ordinary .tex file, which
reads:
%% LyX 2.0.3 created this file. For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.
%% Do not edit unless you really know what you are doing.
\documentclass[dutch]{paper}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage{covington}
\usepackage{babel}
\begin{document}
\begin{example}
test\end{example}
\end{document}
which is rejected by latex with the same error.
I'm using LyX version 2.0.3 on a Gentoo Linux system.
Can anyone help me with this problem? Searching the mailing list has
pointed to a conflict with the Theorem module, but as I don't use it
anywhere in my document I'm at a loss as to what's going on.
Thanks so much!
