More info: I (proudly) wrote my first LaTeX script, using the xy-pic library, and, after a few trials, it worked! I.e., I could generate the arrows provided by xy-pic, which seems to prove that everything is install correctly. I then imported this file in LyX, and there, it didn't get interpreted: - The \circle were translated, but the \ar was included literally. If I try to view the DVI (from inside LyX), I get an error: ---------------------------- <xymatrix LaTeX Font Info: External font `cmex10' loaded for size (Font) <7> on input line 20. LaTeX Font Info: External font `cmex10' loaded for size (Font) <5> on input line 20. ! Argument of \next@ has an extra }. <inserted text> \par l.20 {\circ} \& {\circ} \& {\circ} \& {\circ} } ----------------------------- repeated many times over. Running LaTeX immediately (on my edited file) I have no errors and the DVI output is correct. This is that file: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[all]{xy} \begin{document} Small is beautiful.\\ \xymatrix{ {\circ} \ar[r] & {\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} \\ {\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} } \end{document}
