algorithm

[Myriam Abramson]

What do  you use to write algorithms in an Algorithm float box? 
I'm at a loss about getting the proper indentation. 
I'm looked at the listing class but it's for programming
languages not pseudo-code.

include problem

[Andrew Morrison]

I have three files that I'd like to concatenate within lyx.  Two of the
files were originally tex files and the third is a file written entirely
in lyx.

Somehow I was able to import and convert the tex files to lyx files.
They are named front.lyx and thanks.lyx.   The third file is called
body.lyx, and I would like front and thanks to go at the top of body.

I have tried using the GUI in lyx to include the files using the input
and include methods, both of which fail. I've tried inserting the lyx
file, which does not work.  I have also tried using an ERT box to input
the files, which also fails.

Finally, just to make sure I did not have problems with the front and
thanks files, I created a new lyx file and placed in it an ERT box that
contained:

\input{front}
\input{thanks} 

...and that worked perfectly.   So...I also tried saving that file and
including it at the top of the body.lyx file, but again got several
errors regarding missing or improper use of the curly brackets.

I read the recent message about trying to save the document as a
template, but I couldn't exactly figure out how to make that work in my
case.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Vectorial header

[Pablo Rodríguez González]

Hi guys,

What vectorial images formats does LyX support for importing?
Does it support advanced attributes like gradients and patterns?

In my case I use freehand 10 and I would like to import a draw for the
document's header.

Thanks in advance,

Making header

[Pablo Rodríguez González]

Hi guys,

Reading in extended documentation to make a header for my templates, I
saw that I've to put \chead {My name} in Preamble's box; in
Layout/Document, selecting Fancy.

But it doesn't put my name, and gave me next error:

Undefined control sequence.
 \chead
   {My name}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

But the spelling is correct, or not?

Thanks in advance,

concatenate the things and delete the preamble part and the \the_end

Whatever your converters support. LyX simply doesn't care for graphics
stuff, it just delegates its work to a suitable converter and
latex/pdflatex.

You'll usually need a converter from whatever your drawing program
produces to either .pdf or .eps. This somewhat depends on what route to
the final product you use.

Re: Centering Contents

First of all, than you very much for your responses.

All of them right, except this one:

And...I have one extra page at the beginning of document, with nothing, only the 
number. I can't erase them and move the Contents to the first page :-/

Any idea?

Euro still doesn't work

[Pablo Rodríguez González]

Hi guys,

After reading all mails regarding to the problem with Euro in Lyx, the
solution I saw was:

Put in LaTeX preamble:

\usepackage[official,right]{eurosym}
\renewcommand{\texteuro}{\euro}

Make sure that latex package eurosym is installed and recognized by 
LyX/LaTeX!

I've eurosym installed and do this work, but...

LaTeX Error: \texteuro undefined.
 ...al,right]{eurosym}\renewcommand{\texteuro}
  {\euro}

Any other idea to use Euro with Lyx?

Thanks in advance,

How does this answer the question regarding LyX and it being unable to 
automate the process?

I can always write in straight LaTeX but one of the selling points in LyX is 
to not have to write solely in LaTeX with my content.

Would this require a shell script to strip and replace what is needed?
