Not very consistently, too. Cf.
\begin{tabular}{lll}
to
\begin{longtable}{lll}
I think the lexical decision is only made since they needed two
different environments (one for the float, one for the matrix).
I am not completely sure, but I don't think the table/tabular
distinction is common beyond LaTeX (tabular seems to be used mostly as
an adjective to denote table-like objects). And we don't want to
promote LaTeXisms in the GUI.
Having written that, it might make sense to distinguish table floats
from actual tables for translation if this is needed for some
translations, simply by table[[float]]. I think there are not many
places where we actually use "tabular", and maybe we should revisit
them and check whether we shouldn't use "table" instead.
Not sure that's for 2.4, though.

I don't have strong opinion, but not seeing others responding it's maybe trying to be too strict. Admittedly I never really distinguished these two, OTOH if LaTeX distinguishes it, we should perhaps too...

We're waiting at the moment for the Windows installer. Riki, how do you evaluate the current status wrt the freeze? I might have some time in the next few weeks to be somewhat helpful in sorting out the issues with (layout)translations if we decide to freeze.

[PATCH] Added some options to configure.py allowing for faster partial-reconfigures.
Hey, So it was annoying me that I every time I added a new module or layout file, I have to reconfigure lyx, but this is quite slow. On my (admittedly slow) system it takes about 40 seconds. I noticed the configure.py script itself has some command line options to make it faster, so when I run /usr/share/lyx/configure.py --without-kpsewhich --without-latex-config it's twice as fast, but still around 20 seconds. I've now added a couple of options, so if you have simply changed some module/layouts/citengines/xtemplates you can run: /usr/share/lyx/configure.py --without-kpsewhich --without-latex-config --without-programs --log-file=/dev/null` This now takes 125 miliseconds! Basically my --without-programs option stop it from generating the lyxrc.defaults file (which involves the scripts checking for the presence of a whopping 246 programs!). The --log-file changes the log file (the default is configure.log), which is useful if you want to preserve the log from a previous run of configure.py (such as one that checked for everything). I've also mad it so that if --without-latex-config is passed, the current packages.lst file is NOT modified (before it was blanking it for some reason). Thus assuming you've previously run the full configure (i.e. without options, or through the GUI), the command line above will my new options will only modify the lyxmodules.lst, textclass.lst, lyxciteengines.lst, and xtemplates.lst files. It would be nice to be able to select these options from the GUI when you click the reconfigure button, so if someone familiar with the GUI code can do that, it would be very helpfull! — Isaac Oscar Gariano 0001-Added-without-programs-and-log-file-options-to-confi.patch Description: 0001-Added-without-programs-and-log-file-options-to-confi.patch -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
