I am trying to convince a Mac-only colleague to use LyX on a common
project. She resists installing TeX on her system, for a number of
reasons.
But she won't need to typeset anything---I'll be in charge of
that---and will only use LyX to edit jointly produced file.
A LyX-only installation would suit her needs perfectly. But I can't
figure out from the lyx.org <http://lyx.org> page if this is possible
at all. The page says:
"LyX for Mac OS X is available here: LyX-2.0.7+qt4.dmg
<ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.7/LyX-2.0.7+qt4.dmg>. Before you
install LyX you need to install a TeX system such as MacTeX
<http://www.tug.org/mactex/>. "
Is that requirement enforced? I don't have a Mac at my disposal to try
it out.
I'll try to figure this out here.
FYI, do not use that binary. It has issues. We will be releasing 2.0.7.1
shortly. You can use 2.0.6 for the time being, or wait a day or two.
