I do not quite agree, as said the scripting language would be used to
implement _core_ functionality in LyX. IMO there should be _one_
official scripting language that would need to have to be able to run
lyx. The scripting language would preferably we distributed with LyX.

Subject: PROBLEMS with REVTEX on: LyX 1.1.6fix2

Hi Guys -

first off - thanks for the great program!! Lyx is really
improving, especially the 1.1.6, which has some terrific
features. Also, the latest release even installs on
Tru64 (which 1.1.6fix1 couldn't).

However, I have a  problem with the latest release -
I can't get it to compile my REVTEX papers! These are the
old REVTEX (PHYS. REV still didn't officially release
the new version).

The problem is that as soon as I try to dvi the file, it
complains of a babel error. It seems babel is incompatible
with REVTEX (??). Is there any way to stop the use of this
package if you don't need it?

Next, I can try to export to latex. This is OK, since I can
then delete the babel manually, and it works fine. But, if
I re-import it - same problem but worse, since the figures
won't re-import correctly.

I mentioned this bug before - it is an incompatibility
between the centering syntax which Lyx uses on export
of figures, and the syntax which ReLyx expects. You can't
export and then import figures.

Finally, if I try to change the document class to REVTEX4,
within Lyx, then it is a real mess, with copious Latex
errors reported in the bibliography. I could go back to latex 
- there must be a better way:)

yours, Peter Drummond.

Re: PROBLEMS with REVTEX on: LyX 1.1.6fix2

2001-05-28 Thread Peter D Drummond

 what happens, when you delete in
 edit-preferences-languages-language-package
 the entry usepackage{babel}?
 
 HErbert


This doesn't help, unfortunately. The `english' option
still gets added, and this breaks REVTEX. I guess the
same would occur if I changed to `german' - it seems
you can't have a `null' option.

The attached files (short!) demonstrate the problem.
Start with a valid REVTEX file (TEstLYX.tex) - no
language options are needed, since PHYS REV is only
published in English :-)

Next, TEstLYX.lyx gives the imported file - I
include no figures here, since ReLyx has problems
importing figures - due to the centering command
bug, which is still around :-(

This won't Latex anymore, in LyX1.1.6fix2. Problem
is the same whether or not babel is included in the
preferences panel. By the way - terrific job, whoever
thought of that neat panel!!

To understand why, export to Latex giving TEstLYXa.tex. Front-matter is
changed, with the unwanted `english'
option included. Problem is, this doesn't work with
the Revtex class-file.

Solution would be if LyX could delete the language
option when there is no language package chosen. RevTex
4 will solve the problem RSN, but it would be nice to have backward
compatibility!!

thanks - Peter Drummond.

PS - Lyx got presented very well at the CCP2000
conference last year - so you might get more physicists.

Re: PROBLEMS with REVTEX on: LyX 1.1.6fix2

2001-05-28 Thread Peter D Drummond

 what happens, when you delete in
 edit-preferences-languages-language-package
 the entry usepackage{babel}?
 
 HErbert


This doesn't help, unfortunately. The `english' option
still gets added, and this breaks REVTEX. I guess the
same would occur if I changed to `german' - it seems
you can't have a `null' option.

The attached files (short!) demonstrate the problem.
Start with a valid REVTEX file (TEstLYX.tex) - no
language options are needed, since PHYS REV is only
published in English :-)

Next, TEstLYX.lyx gives the imported file - I
include no figures here, since ReLyx has problems
importing figures - due to the centering command
bug, which is still around :-(

This won't Latex anymore, in LyX1.1.6fix2. Problem
is the same whether or not babel is included in the
preferences panel. By the way - terrific job, whoever
thought of that neat panel!!

To understand why, export to Latex giving TEstLYXa.tex. Front-matter is
changed, with the unwanted `english'
option included. Problem is, this doesn't work with
the Revtex class-file.

Solution would be if LyX could delete the language
option when there is no language package chosen. RevTex
4 will solve the problem RSN, but it would be nice to have backward
compatibility!!

thanks - Peter Drummond.

PS - Lyx got presented very well at the CCP2000
conference last year - so you might get more physicists.

Send it to the lyx-devel list, I'll try to have a look. In general,
try to use the existing .inc files and redefine the styles you need

Subject: PROBLEMS with REVTEX on: LyX 1.1.6fix2

Hi Guys -

first off - thanks for the great program!! Lyx is really
improving, especially the 1.1.6, which has some terrific
features. Also, the latest release even installs on
Tru64 (which 1.1.6fix1 couldn't).

However, I have a  problem with the latest release -
I can't get it to compile my REVTEX papers! These are the
old REVTEX (PHYS. REV still didn't officially release
the new version).

The problem is that as soon as I try to dvi the file, it
complains of a babel error. It seems babel is incompatible
with REVTEX (??). Is there any way to stop the use of this
package if you don't need it?

Next, I can try to export to latex. This is OK, since I can
then delete the babel manually, and it works fine. But, if
I re-import it - same problem but worse, since the figures
won't re-import correctly.

I mentioned this bug before - it is an incompatibility
between the centering syntax which Lyx uses on export
of figures, and the syntax which ReLyx expects. You can't
export and then import figures.

Finally, if I try to change the document class to REVTEX4,
within Lyx, then it is a real mess, with copious Latex
errors reported in the bibliography. I could go back to latex 
- there must be a better way:)

yours, Peter Drummond.

try to find out what's the difference to article-class.
if there are only changes in margins, fonts, ...
than choose article-layout as a base for ajour.layout.
if there are are a lot of special environments and commands
than modify article-layout or write it new.

Lyx1.1.6fix2 RPMs for SUSE?

2001-05-28 Thread Martin Bernreuther

The announcement says:

RPMs for Redhat Linux are at 
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.1.6fix2/lyx-1.1.6fix2-1.i386.rpm

IMHO it would be better to have a directory like "RedHat":
   
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.1.6fix2/RedHat/lyx-1.1.6fix2-1.i386.rpm
How will you otherwise know which RPMs these are? There are no Readme
files there...


The Development News for 20010523 at
http://www.lyx.org/news/20010523.php3

SuSE RPMs are expected soon

There is no link to where to look for these RPMs...
(and when it'll be expected)

I found 1.1.6fix1 rpms for SuSe at
ftp://hst33127.phys.uu.nl/pub/LyX/lyx-1.1.6fix1-40.i386.rpm
through a link at http://www.uni-sw.gwdg.de/~pit/LyX/

As a matter of fact, I have compiled lyx under RH7.1, instead of using RPM. 
While an index is not produced with lyx, the latex-makeindex-latex procedure 
works fine, the index is properly made.
Hope that the g++ compiler will loose its bugs.
