This document's objectives
\layout Standard
This document aims to introduce you to the C programming language, a small
part of its history, some of its structure and short-comings and, of course,
your very first program.
Here is the outcome of that program:
\layout Standard

\layout Itemize
understand the basis of all C programs
\layout Itemize
understand the concept of standard libraries and C headers
\layout Itemize
explain what a function is and understand its structure/syntax
\layout Itemize
write to standard output using printf

Problem with XFig and LyX 1.04 docs
First, a documentation bug report. Then a LyX 1.04 problem. --- The User Guide docs in section 4.3.3 states in item three that the xfig LaTeX/Postscript combined output names would show foo.ps_tex and foo.ps_tex_t. In fact, the names for xfig 3.2p2 outputs the combined names as foo.pstex and foo.pstex_t. --- Second, I can't seem to get this to work. The "Include file" part was done, but blank space appears in the PS output where the figure should appear. If I include foo.pstex as a figure, that works, but of course that is a postscript file, not the LaTeX file foo.pstex_t as suggested in the manual. I don't really need to get this working for my project, but am willing to help figure out what is wrong for future users. Anything I should be trying? OK, I got it working, but I think I found a bug. I looked in the View_Latex log, and found that no matter what extension I gave the file to be included, the log showed the file requested as foo.tex, i.e. if I went to include file fred.latex, it would look for fred.tex. My guess is that somewhere the included file name is being mangled to force an extension of 'tex'.

Table problem with Linuxdoc template
Why is it that tables are not rendered properly when the LinuxDoc template is used? When rendered, the cell values are simply placed one after another on a single line with no table regardless of output format. The DocBook template works, but I haven't figure out how to add a TOC to it. If I insert the TOC, I get an error in the compilation that the TOC is not valid. Here is the output using DocBook ( Note that this was done by simply choosing File - New From Template, selecting DocBook after providing a name and then placing the TOC between the default abstract and first section) - /usr/bin/jade:OSFD0:25:7:E: document type does not allow element "PARA" here; missing one of "ABSTRACT", "PRINTHISTORY", "AUTHORBLURB", "LEGALNOTICE" start-tag /usr/bin/jade:OSFD0:26:6:E: document type does not allow element "TOC" here /usr/bin/jade:/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/version.dsl:11:19:E: cannot find "../VERSION"; tried "/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/../VERSION", "/tmp/lyx_tmp12804aaa/lyx_bufrtmp12804aaa/../VERSION" This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1) I need to create documents with tables that can be output as SGML (for RCS archiving), PostScript, ASCII and HTML. So far as I can tell, I can't get HTML without the SGML intermediate, but I can't get SGML without using a template, but I can't use the templates because each has it's own issues that I can't seem to figure out, ad nauseum. I'm not a stupid person, but LyX 1.0.4 is really making me feel that way.

Here is a possible procedure (I suppose that the texmf tree is owned by root,
you must be root to do it)
- if you have not done it already, create a site_latex dir in the texmf tree, eg
mkdir /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex
(this will ease upgrades)
- go to site_latex and make it public
cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex;chmod 755 .
- check that the required package is not here, eg
kpsewhich longtable.sty
- if not, go to the nearest CTAN archive and ask for the package (e.g. foo)
- download the files (generally two files: foo.ins for the install
and foo.dtx for the doc stuff) in ./foo after a
mkdir foo; chmod 755 foo; cd foo
- latex the two files and make the sty, tex and dvi files public
chmod 444 *.cls *.tex *.sty *.dvi
- run texhash
- test from a plain user login, either \documentclass{foo}, \usepackage{foo} or
\input{foo}
In fact you may have a similar procedure for the bst files in the bibtex part
of the texmf ree; I think that you have often bst files coming in with packages
and that it is simpler to add site_latex in the BSTINPUTS path of texmf.cnf
and keep every imported latex-related stuff in one place.

This document's objectives
\layout Standard
This document aims to introduce you to the C programming language, a small
part of its history, some of its structure and short-comings and, of course,
your very first program.
Here is the outcome of that program:
\layout Standard
localhost root# ./hello
\layout Standard
Hello World!
\layout Standard
localhost root#
\layout Standard
Whilst this program is not at all exciting it will introduce you to a number
of important concepts and topics in C.
\layout Subsection
What you will learn
\layout Standard
By the end of this tutorial you will be able to:
\layout Itemize
understand the basis of all C programs
\layout Itemize
understand the concept of standard libraries and C headers
\layout Itemize
explain what a function is and understand its structure/syntax
\layout Itemize
write to standard output using printf
\layout Itemize
exit gracefully from the main function
\layout Itemize
create and compile the program using tools supplied with virtually all linux
distributions

LyX and LaTeX behaviuor differ
Hello, Using LaTeX to fill-in parametrized pages, I used to put a default file in the texmf tree which was replaced by a modified file in the document directory. This deos not work any more in LyX, the .dep file is not aware of the existence of a file of the same name in the local directory and loads the default. If I export as LaTeX, all is OK again, kpathsea finds the local before the global. How are made exactly the dependencies ? I know how to workaround (put the absolute path, e.g.), howvever as I would like to keep the \input instruction in tyhe global both for Lyx and LaTeX users, it would be better if it worked the same. Perhaps the solution comes with 1.1, as I read recently it will deal with updates of bib files ? Regards -- Jean-Pierre

Problem with XFig and LyX 1.04 docs
First, a documentation bug report. Then a LyX 1.04 problem. --- The User Guide docs in section 4.3.3 states in item three that the xfig LaTeX/Postscript combined output names would show foo.ps_tex and foo.ps_tex_t. In fact, the names for xfig 3.2p2 outputs the combined names as foo.pstex and foo.pstex_t. --- Second, I can't seem to get this to work. The "Include file" part was done, but blank space appears in the PS output where the figure should appear. If I include foo.pstex as a figure, that works, but of course that is a postscript file, not the LaTeX file foo.pstex_t as suggested in the manual. I don't really need to get this working for my project, but am willing to help figure out what is wrong for future users. Anything I should be trying? OK, I got it working, but I think I found a bug. I looked in the View_Latex log, and found that no matter what extension I gave the file to be included, the log showed the file requested as foo.tex, i.e. if I went to include file fred.latex, it would look for fred.tex. My guess is that somewhere the included file name is being mangled to force an extension of 'tex'.

Table problem with Linuxdoc template
Why is it that tables are not rendered properly when the LinuxDoc template is used? When rendered, the cell values are simply placed one after another on a single line with no table regardless of output format. The DocBook template works, but I haven't figure out how to add a TOC to it. If I insert the TOC, I get an error in the compilation that the TOC is not valid. Here is the output using DocBook ( Note that this was done by simply choosing File - New From Template, selecting DocBook after providing a name and then placing the TOC between the default abstract and first section) - /usr/bin/jade:OSFD0:25:7:E: document type does not allow element "PARA" here; missing one of "ABSTRACT", "PRINTHISTORY", "AUTHORBLURB", "LEGALNOTICE" start-tag /usr/bin/jade:OSFD0:26:6:E: document type does not allow element "TOC" here /usr/bin/jade:/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/version.dsl:11:19:E: cannot find "../VERSION"; tried "/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/../VERSION", "/tmp/lyx_tmp12804aaa/lyx_bufrtmp12804aaa/../VERSION" This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1) I need to create documents with tables that can be output as SGML (for RCS archiving), PostScript, ASCII and HTML. So far as I can tell, I can't get HTML without the SGML intermediate, but I can't get SGML without using a template, but I can't use the templates because each has it's own issues that I can't seem to figure out, ad nauseum. I'm not a stupid person, but LyX 1.0.4 is really making me feel that way.

Here is a possible procedure (I suppose that the texmf tree is owned by root,
you must be root to do it)
- if you have not done it already, create a site_latex dir in the texmf tree, eg
mkdir /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex
(this will ease upgrades)
- go to site_latex and make it public
cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex;chmod 755 .
- check that the required package is not here, eg
kpsewhich longtable.sty
- if not, go to the nearest CTAN archive and ask for the package (e.g. foo)
- download the files (generally two files: foo.ins for the install
and foo.dtx for the doc stuff) in ./foo after a
mkdir foo; chmod 755 foo; cd foo
- latex the two files and make the sty, tex and dvi files public
chmod 444 *.cls *.tex *.sty *.dvi
- run texhash
- test from a plain user login, either \documentclass{foo}, \usepackage{foo} or
\input{foo}
In fact you may have a similar procedure for the bst files in the bibtex part
of the texmf ree; I think that you have often bst files coming in with packages
and that it is simpler to add site_latex in the BSTINPUTS path of texmf.cnf
and keep every imported latex-related stuff in one place.

Rod occurs between no roman (a-z) characters and the attached

You must install the packages libforms-bin, libforms-dev, xpm4g-dev. With this packages I compiled lyx1.0.4 on Debian slink successfully. greetings, Reihard -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reinhard Borek Exp.

I have attached a sample file. On this particular file section 1.2
doesn't print at all. Furthermore it's touch and go whether the headers
print either.

\layout Subsection
This document's objectives
\layout Standard
This document aims to introduce you to the C programming language, a small
part of its history, some of its structure and short-comings and, of course,
your very first program.
Here is the outcome of that program:
\layout Standard
# ./hello
\layout Standard
Hello World!
\layout Standard
#
\layout Standard
Whilst this program is not at all exciting it will introduce you to a number
of important concepts and topics in C.
\layout Subsection
What you will learn
\layout Standard
By the end of this tutorial you will be able to:
\layout Itemize
understand the basis of all C programs
\layout Itemize
understand the concept of standard libraries and C headers
\layout Itemize
explain what a function is and understand its structure/syntax
\layout Itemize
write to standard output using printf
\layout Itemize
exit gracefully from the main function
\layout Itemize
create and compile the program using tools supplied with virtually all linux
distributions
\layout Section
Requirements
\layout Standard
This section shows the hardware and software requirements necessary to develop
your first
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
Hello World!
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
application.
In addition, it also specifies what the author assumes you already know.
\layout Subsection
Hardware and software requirements
\layout Standard
You will need the following to be able to produce the program outlined in
this document:
\layout Itemize
linux
\layout Itemize
gcc or egcs
\layout Itemize
gmake
\layout Itemize
vi, pico, joe or emacs (any text editor will do)
\layout Standard
The author cannot think of a hard-drive installation of linux which would
lack these tools.
Most users can assume that they all exist on their system.
\layout Subsection
Assumed knowledge
\layout Standard
The following knowledge is assumed:
\layout Itemize
basic knowledge of the linux operating system
\layout Itemize
basic computer knowledge, such as what a computer is, what a program is
\layout Itemize
an understanding of linux file permissions (read, write and execute)
\layout Itemize
how to use the text editor of your choice
\layout Standard
As you have managed to obtain this document, the author feels that these
are reasonable assumptions.

LyX and LaTeX behaviuor differ
Hello, Using LaTeX to fill-in parametrized pages, I used to put a default file in the texmf tree which was replaced by a modified file in the document directory. This deos not work any more in LyX, the .dep file is not aware of the existence of a file of the same name in the local directory and loads the default. If I export as LaTeX, all is OK again, kpathsea finds the local before the global. How are made exactly the dependencies ? I know how to workaround (put the absolute path, e.g.), howvever as I would like to keep the \input instruction in tyhe global both for Lyx and LaTeX users, it would be better if it worked the same. Perhaps the solution comes with 1.1, as I read recently it will deal with updates of bib files ? Regards -- Jean-Pierre

Problem with XFig and LyX 1.04 docs
First, a documentation bug report. Then a LyX 1.04 problem. --- The User Guide docs in section 4.3.3 states in item three that the xfig LaTeX/Postscript combined output names would show foo.ps_tex and foo.ps_tex_t. In fact, the names for xfig 3.2p2 outputs the combined names as foo.pstex and foo.pstex_t. --- Second, I can't seem to get this to work. The "Include file" part was done, but blank space appears in the PS output where the figure should appear. If I include foo.pstex as a figure, that works, but of course that is a postscript file, not the LaTeX file foo.pstex_t as suggested in the manual. I don't really need to get this working for my project, but am willing to help figure out what is wrong for future users. Anything I should be trying? OK, I got it working, but I think I found a bug. I looked in the View_Latex log, and found that no matter what extension I gave the file to be included, the log showed the file requested as foo.tex, i.e. if I went to include file fred.latex, it would look for fred.tex. My guess is that somewhere the included file name is being mangled to force an extension of 'tex'.

Hi everybody I'm running Lyx.1.0.1 within a tetex-latex 0.9.2.. I'd like to know how to install some latex packages such as easy talbe, long table etc and, after this, make them work at lyx. Thank you very much []s rlopes
Table problem with Linuxdoc template
Why is it that tables are not rendered properly when the LinuxDoc template is used? When rendered, the cell values are simply placed one after another on a single line with no table regardless of output format. The DocBook template works, but I haven't figure out how to add a TOC to it. If I insert the TOC, I get an error in the compilation that the TOC is not valid. Here is the output using DocBook ( Note that this was done by simply choosing File -> New From Template, selecting DocBook after providing a name and then placing the TOC between the default abstract and first section) - /usr/bin/jade:0:25:7:E: document type does not allow element "PARA" here; missing one of "ABSTRACT", "PRINTHISTORY", "AUTHORBLURB", "LEGALNOTICE" start-tag /usr/bin/jade:0:26:6:E: document type does not allow element "TOC" here /usr/bin/jade:/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/version.dsl:11:19:E: cannot find "../VERSION"; tried "/usr/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/print/../VERSION", "/tmp/lyx_tmp12804aaa/lyx_bufrtmp12804aaa/../VERSION" This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1) I need to create documents with tables that can be output as SGML (for RCS archiving), PostScript, ASCII and HTML. So far as I can tell, I can't get HTML without the SGML intermediate, but I can't get SGML without using a template, but I can't use the templates because each has it's own issues that I can't seem to figure out, ad nauseum. I'm not a stupid person, but LyX 1.0.4 is really making me feel that way. As far as LinuxDoc goes, this all worked for me in an older version of LyX (though I can't remember which one.) -David -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCA/CS d+@ s+++:++ a C++ UL$ SU++ P++(P--) L E++ W+++ N++ w--- O++@ M+@ PS+ PE Y+ t++@ 5+++ X+@ R- tv+ DI++ D+ G++ e++>(e+++) h++ r++ --END GEEK CODE BLOCK--

This looks like the answer. LyX will be running LaTeX in /tmp/lyx...
BUT if the file is \input shouldn't LyX have a copy of it in /tmp also or
at least know of its existance? Unless its a ERT \input maybe?
A possible workaround might be to disable the use of a temporary
directory. There's a lyxrc variable for that but I can't remember its
name.
BTW, this is only a guess.

Here is a possible procedure (I suppose that the texmf tree is owned by root,
you must be root to do it)
- if you have not done it already, create a site_latex dir in the texmf tree, eg
mkdir /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex
(this will ease upgrades)
- go to site_latex and make it public
cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/site_latex;chmod 755 .
- check that the required package is not here, eg
kpsewhich longtable.sty
- if not, go to the nearest CTAN archive and ask for the package (e.g. foo)
- download the files (generally two files: foo.ins for the install
and foo.dtx for the doc stuff) in ./foo after a
mkdir foo; chmod 755 foo; cd foo
- latex the two files and make the sty, tex and dvi files public
chmod 444 *.cls *.tex *.sty *.dvi
- run texhash
- test from a plain user login, either \documentclass{foo}, \usepackage{foo} or
\input{foo}
In fact you may have a similar procedure for the bst files in the bibtex part
of the texmf ree; I think that you have often bst files coming in with packages
and that it is simpler to add site_latex in the BSTINPUTS path of texmf.cnf
and keep every imported latex-related stuff in one place.

Hello,
Sorry about responding so late. While I see the behaviour you describe
for \beta_k, it does not seem to have any effect on screen, as far as
I can see. Could you send an example file (maybe two, with 1.0.3 and
1.0.4)?
I do not remember any change in math code which might produce that...

should have been r_\mathrm{wave}. It seems once LyX comes across the
incorrect \textrm it gets a little confused. Anyway, I've attached an
example file (gzipped) which displays the behaviour. If you load it, you
should see the extra spaces between the normal and subscript characters.
Actually, it only occurs on reloading the file. If you type in a new
expression, Lyx handles it fine.
Thanks for the interest, and an excellent program.
