Both running 

$ LYX_USERDIR_23x=your_directory lyx
or
$ lyx -userdir your_directory

work here as intended.

Thanks for the response, I tried it and didn't work. I'm using Void's
package for LyX, which is compiled using

./configure --enable-qt5 --without-included-mythes --without-included-boost
make

What do I have to change in the compilation in order to enable this
environment variable?

It may depend on how your lyx is compiled.
Have you tried LYX_USERDIR_23x?

If you can use terminal, you could also call lyx with an parameter (before the 
lyx-docs)
$ lyx -userdir whatever ...

Hello,

While updating the Customization manual translation in French, I see at the end 
of section 5.3.13 a reference to the checkbox name “Full aut list”.


The effective name in the po file is "All authors".
I intend to correct this together with my update of the French manual. Is it OK

Yes, it's not apparent. We should probably add the section of this
subsection in the reference (section numbers are subject to change,
that's why we don't give them). Also, it strikes me this is one level
too deep (should be 5.2.2 rather than 5.2.1.1).

This is probably referring to section 5.2.1.1 Local Layout. (My

always get a pdf and lyx version from

RSphrase is only used if you use the corresponding module. Thus please

Note that the R-S phrases for chemical security have been replaced by 
the H-P phrases due to international conventions. LyX offers a

Customization manual, 5.1 Installing new LaTeX files, Kubuntu 12.04

2014-10-24 Thread Patrick Gagnon
Hello,

I am impressed with LyX approach to writing papers and with its potential.
Couldn't imagine it is so much easier to write directly into a template,
instead of permanently being preoccupied with formating. Was very skeptical
when first opened LyX (this might sound usual to you, suppose LyX users are
characterized by skepticism - this is science, isn't it?). But very soon I
was amazed. BRAVO!

But (there's always a but), I'm not from maths, astros, etc., rather from
human sciences. I need APA  APA6 unavailable packages installed.
Downloaded them (zip) and unzipped them, but what do I have to do now? The
manual mentioned in this message subject says something like: modify the
local/user tree, and define variables... Hello (or should I write just
Hell), I'm not a programmer! I know how to use a Terminal, how to use an
application with root privileges (kdesudo), how to install a PPA, but this
is about all I know. Should I say sorry for not using Windex or the stupid
Maple? Never!

Well, mainly I didn't write you to ask for advises on how to install APA
and APA6 new LaTex files, I just wanted to let you to know that this
standards/styles are so much used (almost exclusively) for writing papers
in human sciences, from articles to doctoral thesis, and within Psychology
(where the style was created) to almost any other human science (just name
it). These being said, it would be very nice from you, a bunch of positive
scientists, to think at as, poor human scientists, too, and include within
the next update these styles (APA and APA6), as available document classes.
And until than, some specific advises on how to install these missing LaTex
files I downloaded from CTAN, would be so much welcome. Thanx!

Folks, you did such a good job with this application, but for the moment it
is a little bit narrow without the most used styles (I'd say 90%+) in human
sciences, which are the APA  APA6 standards (both, because many human
sciences still favor the old APA style).

Thanks for your understanding, and hoping for a both, human  positive
answer.
Bests,

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for thoughtful email. It's always nice to receive feedback
on what we're doing right and what we need to do better. It's nice to
see LaTeX and LyX being used more widely outside of math-based
disciplines. It really does have a lot of features that should not be
limited to publications with math.

LyX is a frontend to LaTeX. What that means is that LyX does the
formatting then hands it off to LaTeX. You are asking about installing
LaTeX files. That is not the job of LyX. It is the job of your LaTeX
package (TeX Live in Ubuntu) or of your package manager (apt in
Ubuntu). I don't see how LyX could make the process easier without
going far outside of its purview. Please let me know if you disagree
or if you have any further feedback on this. These are just my
opinions.

Now to your question. I suggest you google install LaTeX packages in
Ubuntu. Alternatively, you might be interested in a script that I
wrote:
https://github.com/scottkosty/install-tl-ubuntu

With just a couple commands you can install everything you will ever
need for using LyX and LaTeX and all of the document classes in LyX
will become available.
If you want to use it, I recommend you remove your current TeX Live files:
sudo apt-get purge texlive-*

Then download the script with:
wget 
https://github.com/scottkosty/install-tl-ubuntu/raw/master/install-tl-ubuntu
 chmod +x ./install-tl-ubuntu

Then take a look at the options you might want:
./install-tl-ubuntu --help

For example, you might like the --more-tex option, which installs
all LaTeX files needed for LyX.

Then, run with:

sudo ./install-tl-ubuntu --more-tex

Note that this will take a long time. I recommend you run it before
you go to bed. After it is done, restart your computer. Then in LyX go
to Tools  Reconfigure. Then restart LyX. Now the document classes
should all be available.

Please send any further questions (including replies to this email) to
lyx-us...@lists.lyx.org. You send your email to the documentation

Removed it.

Yes, I think there are many power users who make clever uses of this
mechanism.

Customization-14621 and LyX-1.4.4 feedback

Dear Team, I am Meris Miconi and in this email
I report any errors encounter into Customization-14621.lyx
Sorry for my bad english.

2.2 Your local configuration directory
[...] Layout-Document (meris: Document-Settings)

2.3 Running LyX with multiple configurations
[...] LYX_USERDIR_13x (meris: LYX_USERDIR_14x)

[...] subirectory (meris: subdirectory)
 
3.2.2 Font definition commands (meris: this subsection is untidy)
[...] Use scalable fonts button (meris: Rescale bitmap fonts button)

[...] Use scalable fonts button (meris: idem as above)

3.3 Bindings
[...] Reference Guide (meris: maybe Appendix A Bindings ???)

3.5 Converters, Formats, Viewers, Editors and Copiers
[...]  hit Modify. (meris: Apply)

3.8.1 Changing Colors
[...] Reference Guide (meris: that is what?)

4.2.2 Translating the documentation.
[...] ~/.lyx/doc/ (meris: UserDir/.lyx/doc/)

4.3.1 Defining Own Keymaps: Keymap File Format
[...] Also, you have to define as exceptions dead keys over i and j, to 
remove the dot from them before inserting an accent mark. I will change 
this when the time comes, but so far I haven't had time. (meris: now it 
works !!!)

4.4.1 The .kmap File
[...] ksmod (meris: kxmod)

[...] ksmod (meris: kxmod)

[...] and char must not belong in the allowed set of accent. (meris: Why 
not? See american-2.kmap and Subsection 4.3.1 Defining Own Keymaps: Keymap 
File Format)

[...] The following command produces causes äi to be produced [...]  (meris: 
Replace umlaunt-ai with acute-i 'í')

4.4.3 Dead Keys
[...] Reference Manual (meris: maybe Appendix A Bindings ???)

4.4.4 Saving your Language Configuration
[...] Edit-Preferences (meris: Tools-Preferences)

5.1 Installing a new LaTeX package
[...] Layout-Document (meris: Document-Settings)

5.3.4 Specific Paragraph Layouts
[...] Layout-Paragraph (meris: Edit-Paragraph Settings)
[...] Fill_Top (meris: it doesn't exist anymore)
[...] Fill_Bottom (meris: it doesn't exist anymore)

5.4 Creating Templates
[...] Save as Document Defaults button (meris: ???)

6.2 How does it work?
[...] Insert-External Material (meris: maybe Insert-Graphics ???)

6.5 The external template configuration file
[...] lib/external_templates (meris: $LyXDir/external_templates)
[...] .lyx/external_templates (meris: $UserDir/.lyx/external_templates)

--- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + ---

Follows lyx bugs:

If the first char of the file name is a '!', lyx doesn't complete preview 
and export of PDF(pdf2ps) and postscript.

Take a look at the attached file.
