lyxserver and pybliographer

[Juha Siltala]

Hi all,

New to the list, so I really don't know if this has been discussed (took a
quick peek to the latest archive though).

I'm planning to write my masters thesis with lyx. I found a nice
bibliographic database app called pybliographer with a gtk frontend so
that I wouldn't have to learn too much about bibtex, as this app does
bibtex databases. Anybody know about this? It should be able to talk to
the lyxserver, so references could be made through point-and-click in
Pybliographic (the name of the front end). Didn't work though. If anyone
uses this, I'd be grateful for hints as to how to set up the lyxserver
(not much documentation about it - I have something like lyx 1.5) and the
bibtex file. I run lyx on a Mandrake 7.2 / intel box.

I love the tex output and don't want to use big and obtrusive "word
processors" like StarOffice and such, especially on a P133 :( so I have
gotten into the habit of using lyx, but haven't written anything this big
with it yet.

Also, Finnish hyphenation isn't quite perfect, but this is not really a
lyx matter :)

Hallo,
hat vielleicht jemand Erfahrung mit dem Programm 
word2tex? Habe mir dieses Programm besorgt (und registriert), um bestehende 
word97-Dateien in das tex-Format zu konvertieren. Leider bislang ohne Erfolg: 
Der Konvertierungs- bzw. Speicherungsvorgang in das neue Format bricht am Ende 
jeweils mit der Fehlermeldung "Word kann den Speicherungsvorgang aufgrund eines 
Berechtigungsfehlers nicht zu Ende führen" ab. Über die Homepage des Programms 
habe ich bislang keine Hilfe erhalten.
Dank im voraus.

Did you add \serverpipe your input-output stream file" int your lyxrc
file ?

For example I have :

\serverpipe "/tmp/.lyx/lyxpipe"

I don't use it on /home/your name here/.lyx/lyxpipe  because it does
not work on nfs shares.

Furthermore I recommend to alias your lyx command to delete previously
server pipe files berfore i.e. :

alias lyx 'rm /tmp/.lyx/lyxpipe.* ; /usr/X11/bin/lyx'

You can try to run LyX with option "-dbg lyxserver" and see what the

I believe my latex configuration is ok. I rudely edited language.dat,
uncommenting the relevant line. But the hyphenation just isn't perfect. It
does work, but makes mistakes and sometimes leaves words uncut, resulting
in long lines. This is only a minor nuisance that nicely keeps me awake
while proof-reading :) Finnish is not actually ispell's favourite language
either, being one that makes up cases and temporals by adding more and
more stuff to the ends of words instead of nice clean prefixes.

Emmanuel, the line in your rc file actually is different from mine, as I
remember it. I'll see to that too. Also, I didn't realise the pipe files
can be anywhere, like /tmp. I have /tmp cleaned up at every bootup, but of
course an alias is better if one has multiple lyx sessions a day.

Thanks a lot guys,

Hello,

I know this isn't the right place and I don't know whether the suggested
feature has already been implemented (using 1.1.5fix1).

In my document I have a lot of subsubsections and sometimes paragraphs
and it is difficult to refer to those.

1) Would be nice if each numbered chapter, section (...) automatically
gets a label corresponding to the chapter / section title. 
2) Would be nice if I could use the label-name as reference.

To give an example (The %marked% is supposed to be a label / reference):

1 Chapter one %sec:Chapter one%
1.1 Section one_point_one %sec:Section one_point_one%
1.1.1 Subsection one_point_one_point_one %sec:Subsection
one_point_one_point_one%
This is a subsubsection %sec:This is a subsubsection%

I can't refer to 'This is a subsubsection' because the depth for
numbering is limited (and that's o.k.)

Would be nice to write:
As can be seen in %ref_name:sec:This is a subsubsection% on page
%page:sec:This is a subsubsection%.
And to receive:
As can be seen in 'This is a subsubsection' on page 12.

The auto-labelling would be nice because my section-titles change from
time to time and I always have to update the section-titles used in the
text.

I hope you understand what I mean...

Martin

Check out the shareware program "wmf2eps"  Basically, anything you copy in 
Windows can be turned into an eps file.  I've used it for generating eps 
versions of several Excel plots.  You should be able to find it

Compiling lyx-1.1.6fix1

[Bruce Little]

Help,

I am getting the following errors from trying to compile lyx-1.1.6fix1
under HP-UX11. In fact I am unable to compile any version of lyx newer
than 1.0.4. I have spent ages running the configure script in different
ways and it always says that configuration is successful. However,
compilation always fails.

I have no knowledge of c++, hence the error messages below mean little
to me. I would be most grateful for any help.

Thanks
Bruce

Bug. How to report a bug

[Ralph Boland]

I thought there was a mechanism for reporting bugs but I couldn't find
it  at   www.lyx.org.

Perhaps a description of how to report a bug should be easier to find
(or perhaps I am just to dumb to find it).

Anyway, here is my bug.
In lyx 1.1.5 I used a mapped  a key so that when I typed it
the next chacter was a greek math symbol.   For example I could  type
"if 'greek-alpha'  then
as  "if 'special-key'a  then".  This doesn't work as well anymore now
that I am using 1.1.6-fix1.
If  I try the same expression now then after I type  "'special-key'a"
the cursor is placed before (not after where I think it should be) the
'greek-alpha' symbol.  Thus before I can continue typing I must advance
the
cursor from before the 'alpha-symbol' to after the 'alpha-symbol'.  I do
this kind of typing often.

Thanks,  especially if this bug has already been reported.

lyx-code

[Paolo Di Francesco]

Hello,

I am writing a lot of pages with lyx. Not the first time, but I don't 
remember how to change the lyx-code style in the whole document. The 
problem is that I use lyx-code only in figures (as examples) and the 
lines get out of pages (lines too long). 
So what I would love is a smaller font for the lyx-code without 
changing it manually. I remember that I can set parameters in the 
preamble section, but I don't remember how.

Any suggestion? :)

Just editing language.dat is not sufficient -- you should also run
texhash after that. Or try texconfig as suggested, check the condition of
language.dat from there and then choose rehash or run texhash or whatever
the topic is. You can see what hyphenation tables are loaded by
viewing the Latex log file (from the Lyx Edit menu).

I also write in Finnish and after I got babel working, it makes
practically no wrong hyphenations. It still sometimes leaves words uncut,
but these are easier to find and correct.

You could also consider to use tkbibtex
http://www.cat.csiro.au/cmst/staff/pic/tkbibtex.html
which is less sophisticated but also has the "push to lyx" feature. --works for me.

Also, in my german version of Pybliographic is a menu-point 
"Einstellungen|Einstellungen" (Settings) where I had to change the value for
LyXpipe from "~.lyx/lyxpipe" to "~.lyxpipe" to get it work.

No texhash in not enough, you must rebuilt the .fmt file
(the precompiled format which includes the kernel of macros).

 Or try texconfig as suggested, 

That's it, texconfig allows to do it, but 
initex latex.ltx
is the base command.
This produces latex.fmt which must replace the original (after rename !).

You distrib may allow to name differently each format and call it
with a name different from latex to avoid mixing things.
I must say I don't use it.

Compiling lyx-1.1.6fix1

[Bruce Little]

Help,

I am getting the following errors from trying to compile lyx-1.1.6fix1
under HP-UX11. In fact I am unable to compile any version of lyx newer
than 1.0.4. I have spent ages running the configure script in different
ways and it always says that configuration is successful. However,
compilation always fails.

I have no knowledge of c++, hence the error messages below mean little

Bug. How to report a bug

[Ralph Boland]

I thought there was a mechanism for reporting bugs but I couldn't find
it  at   www.lyx.org.

Perhaps a description of how to report a bug should be easier to find
(or perhaps I am just to dumb to find it).

Anyway, here is my bug.
In lyx 1.1.5 I used a mapped  a key so that when I typed it
the next chacter was a greek math symbol.   For example I could  type
"if 'greek-alpha'  then
as  "if 'special-key'a  then".  This doesn't work as well anymore now
that I am using 1.1.6-fix1.
If  I try the same expression now then after I type  "'special-key'a"
the cursor is placed before (not after where I think it should be) the
'greek-alpha' symbol.  Thus before I can continue typing I must advance
the
cursor from before the 'alpha-symbol' to after the 'alpha-symbol'.  I do
this kind of typing often.

Thanks,  especially if this bug has already been reported.

lyx-code

[Paolo Di Francesco]

Hello,

I am writing a lot of pages with lyx. Not the first time, but I don't 
remember how to change the lyx-code style in the whole document. The 
problem is that I use lyx-code only in figures (as examples) and the 
lines get out of pages (lines too long). 
So what I would love is a smaller font for the lyx-code without 
changing it manually. I remember that I can set parameters in the 
preamble section, but I don't remember how.

Any suggestion? :)

Just editing language.dat is not sufficient -- you should also run
texhash after that. Or try texconfig as suggested, check the condition of
language.dat from there and then choose rehash or run texhash or whatever
the topic is. You can see what hyphenation tables are loaded by
viewing the Latex log file (from the Lyx Edit menu).

I also write in Finnish and after I got babel working, it makes
practically no wrong hyphenations. It still sometimes leaves words uncut,
but these are easier to find and correct.

You could also consider to use tkbibtex

which is less sophisticated but also has the "push to lyx" feature. --works for me.

Also, in my german version of Pybliographic is a menu-point

LyXpipe from "~.lyx/lyxpipe" to "~.lyxpipe" to get it work.

No texhash in not enough, you must rebuilt the .fmt file
(the precompiled format which includes the kernel of macros).

 Or try texconfig as suggested, 

That's it, texconfig allows to do it, but 
initex latex.ltx
is the base command.
This produces latex.fmt which must replace the original (after rename !).

You distrib may allow to name differently each format and call it
with a name different from latex to avoid mixing things.
I must say I don't use it.

lyxserver and pybliographer

[Juha Siltala]

Hi all,

New to the list, so I really don't know if this has been discussed (took a
quick peek to the latest archive though).

I'm planning to write my masters thesis with lyx. I found a nice
bibliographic database app called pybliographer with a gtk frontend so
that I wouldn't have to learn too much about bibtex, as this app does
bibtex databases. Anybody know about this? It should be able to talk to
the lyxserver, so references could be made through point-and-click in
Pybliographic (the name of the front end). Didn't work though. If anyone
uses this, I'd be grateful for hints as to how to set up the lyxserver
(not much documentation about it - I have something like lyx 1.5) and the
bibtex file. I run lyx on a Mandrake 7.2 / intel box.

I love the tex output and don't want to use big and obtrusive "word
processors" like StarOffice and such, especially on a P133 :( so I have
gotten into the habit of using lyx, but haven't written anything this big
with it yet.

Also, Finnish hyphenation isn't quite perfect, but this is not really a
lyx matter :)

Did you add \serverpipe " int your lyxrc
file ?

For example I have :

\serverpipe "/tmp/.lyx/lyxpipe"

I don't use it on /home//.lyx/lyxpipe  because it does
not work on nfs shares.

Furthermore I recommend to alias your lyx command to delete previously
server pipe files berfore i.e. :

alias lyx 'rm /tmp/.lyx/lyxpipe.* ; /usr/X11/bin/lyx'

You can try to run LyX with option "-dbg lyxserver" and see what the

Did you configure finnish hyphenation for LaTeX? You should use

Emmanuel, the line in your rc file actually is different from mine, as I
remember it. I'll see to that too. Also, I didn't realise the pipe files
can be anywhere, like /tmp. I have /tmp cleaned up at every bootup, but of
course an alias is better if one has multiple lyx sessions a day.

Thanks a lot guys,

Wish for References

[Martin Adorni]

Hello,

I know this isn't the right place and I don't know whether the suggested
feature has already been implemented (using 1.1.5fix1).

In my document I have a lot of subsubsections and sometimes paragraphs
and it is difficult to refer to those.

1) Would be nice if each numbered chapter, section (...) automatically
gets a label corresponding to the chapter / section title. 
2) Would be nice if I could use the label-name as reference.

To give an example (The %marked% is supposed to be a label / reference):

1 Chapter one %sec:Chapter one%
1.1 Section one_point_one %sec:Section one_point_one%
1.1.1 Subsection one_point_one_point_one %sec:Subsection
one_point_one_point_one%
This is a subsubsection %sec:This is a subsubsection%

I can't refer to 'This is a subsubsection' because the depth for
numbering is limited (and that's o.k.)

Would be nice to write:
As can be seen in %ref_name:sec:This is a subsubsection% on page
%page:sec:This is a subsubsection%.

Bug. How to report a bug

[Ralph Boland]

I thought there was a mechanism for reporting bugs but I couldn't find
it  at   www.lyx.org.

Perhaps a description of how to report a bug should be easier to find
(or perhaps I am just to dumb to find it).

Anyway, here is my bug.
In lyx 1.1.5 I used a mapped  a key so that when I typed it
the next chacter was a greek math symbol.   For example I could  type
"if 'greek-alpha'  then
as  "if 'special-key'a  then".  This doesn't work as well anymore now
that I am using 1.1.6-fix1.
If  I try the same expression now then after I type  "'special-key'a"
the cursor is placed before (not after where I think it should be) the
'greek-alpha' symbol.  Thus before I can continue typing I must advance
the
cursor from before the 'alpha-symbol' to after the 'alpha-symbol'.  I do
this kind of typing often.

Thanks,  especially if this bug has already been reported.

lyx-code

[Paolo Di Francesco]

Hello,

I am writing a lot of pages with lyx. Not the first time, but I don't 
remember how to change the lyx-code style in the whole document. The 
problem is that I use lyx-code only in figures (as examples) and the 
lines get out of pages (lines too long). 
So what I would love is a smaller font for the lyx-code without 
changing it manually. I remember that I can set parameters in the 
preamble section, but I don't remember how.

Any suggestion? :)

Lyx Install Help...

[Ray Brown]

I am trying to install LyX 1.1.6fix1 and keep getting a dependancy error looking
for libforms.so.0.88.  I cannot find this package anywhere.  Installing on
RedHat7.0 (works fine??)

Anybody know where I can track down a stable version of libforms??

Cheers,

Ray

Just editing language.dat is not sufficient -- you should also run
texhash after that. Or try texconfig as suggested, check the condition of
language.dat from there and then choose rehash or run texhash or whatever
the topic is. You can see what hyphenation tables are loaded by
viewing the Latex log file (from the Lyx Edit menu).

I also write in Finnish and after I got babel working, it makes
practically no wrong hyphenations. It still sometimes leaves words uncut,
but these are easier to find and correct.

You could also consider to use tkbibtex
http://www.cat.csiro.au/cmst/staff/pic/tkbibtex.html
which is less sophisticated but also has the "push to lyx" feature. --works for me.

Also, in my german version of Pybliographic is a menu-point 
"Einstellungen|Einstellungen" (Settings) where I had to change the value for
LyXpipe from "~.lyx/lyxpipe" to "~.lyxpipe" to get it work.

No texhash in not enough, you must rebuilt the .fmt file
(the precompiled format which includes the kernel of macros).

>> Or try texconfig as suggested, 

That's it, texconfig allows to do it, but 
initex latex.ltx
is the base command.
This produces latex.fmt which must replace the original (after rename !).

You distrib may allow to name differently each format and call it
with a name different from latex to avoid mixing things.
I must say I don't use it.
