The epitome of this exercise is that each time a layout/style/class has to be added then we have to update only on central server and each user will be able to access it. We already have a nfs server. It is easy, but you need to install from source. Run configure with --prefix=/mount/server/lyx, where /mount/server is the mountpoint of the nfs server. LyX will then install in /mount/server/lyx. Then you need to make sure that either /mount/server/lyx/bin is in the path, or create symlinks for the programs contained in that directory that sit in the path. Georg

Re: OT: Converter matrix to picture
You should try Matplotlib under python. You've got a lot of the MATLAB functionality re-implemented in python. http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/ There is a sample sparsity diagram that I produced, see here (scroll down to near the bottom) https://pse.cheme.cmu.edu/wiki/view/Ascend/PythonWrapper Using matplotlib you can also render directly to various formats including SVG, I believe. Hope that helps JP Paul Smith wrote: Dear All This may be a bit out of topic.

Re: Installing Lyx on nfs
I don't know if Lyx has any special constrains that would block the following solution but maybe you should give it a try. 1) On the server, install manually from source Lyx on a separate directory (like /opt/Lyx). 2) Export the above said directory. 3) On the client side, adjust the users' $PATH to include the nfs-imported directory. Implications: A. All istances of Lyx in your network will be executed on the NFS server (based on the machine's specs and average Lyx usage from your people, try to estimate if the server can take the extra load). B. You should probably similarly `centralise' your tetex installation to avoid inconsistencies. This could be quite the pain...

Re: Mac Install Problems
Ian, I had similar problems and solved it by removing all the preference- files (old and new). From 1.3.5 on the preferences have been moved from ~/.lyx/ to ~/ Library/Application Support/lyx/ When upgrading the lyx installer moves the files but apparently something goes wrong causing lyx to look in the wrong places. I upgraded from 1.3.5 to 1.3.7 and got your problem, although tetex and all classes were present as before. I'm not sure but it is possible that the paths in the preferences-dialog were empty; maybe supplying the missing paths may also help.

All istances of Lyx in your network will be executed on the NFS server (based on the machine's specs and average Lyx usage from your people, try to estimate if the server can take the extra load). It most probably can, since LyX is not executed on the server. Only the binary and some support files are read on startup, so startup time could be a little bit slower, but during normal editing everything sits in the cache (local memory on the client machine), so you have no load on the server. B. You should probably similarly `centralise' your tetex installation to avoid inconsistencies. This could be quite the pain... Not really. If you have a standard tetex install on every machine, you only need set the TEXMFLOCAL environment variable to a directory on the server, where you store your additional packages etc. Georg

Lyx under Windows, latex not useable
Hello everyone, I recently reinstalled my windows and thus had to reinstall Miktex and Lyx. For an obscure reason Lyx (even the new version 1.7) doesn't want to work anymore because it can't use latex. Miktex 2.4 is well configured (TexnicCenter works) and latex is in my PATH : $ latex This is e-TeX, Version 3.141592-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.4) ** Running configure, it appears that Lyx doesn't find a proper latex : $ ./configure checking for a LaTeX2e program... (latex latex2e) +checking for latex... not useable +checking for latex2e... no I have already seen this message on the internet (including this mailing list) but it was on Linux systems and the answers were more than fuzzy about the origin of the problem. Is that because Miktex now uses e-tex and Lyx wants Latex2e ? Is there something that should be in my PATH that isn't yet ? I really don't understand what I have done wrong because both Miktex and Lyx are freshly installed. Thanks in advance, Kevin

Sequential numbering, not AMS
Hi, I was wondering whether it is possible to modify the behavior of the Enumerate style in LyX so that numbering is sequential throughout the document without embedding other environments in the Enumerate environment. Most importantly, I need numbering to not restart after new Sections and Subsections. Here is an example of what I need to accomplish: 1 Section 1 1. example 1 2. example 2 a. subexample 2a b. subexample 2b Standard text between examples, not embedded. After this paragraph, numbering continues: 3. example 3 4. example 4 2 Section 2 Standard text 5. example 5 6. example 6 and so on. I am aware of the packages covington.sty and gb4e.sty, but they conflict with some other packages I need to use on a regular basis... I even created a modified article.layout file with covington.sty as a special Numbered environment, but i was wondering if there is something simpler that I could do with \setcounter in the preamble, for example. I have tried using the document class article (AMS, sequential numbering), but it doesn't seem to do what I described above, either. Thanks in advance, and sorry if I missed something obvious.

Re: Installing Lyx on nfs
I don't know if Lyx has any special constrains that would block the following solution but maybe you should give it a try. 1) On the server, install manually from source Lyx on a separate directory (like /opt/Lyx). 2) Export the above said directory. 3) On the client side, adjust the users' $PATH to include the nfs-imported directory. Implications: A. All istances of Lyx in your network will be executed on the NFS server (based on the machine's specs and average Lyx usage from your people, try to estimate if the server can take the extra load). B. You should probably similarly `centralise' your tetex installation to avoid inconsistencies. This could be quite the pain...

changing fonts in TOC
I'm working on my thesis and every school seems to have their own format rules... I'm using article(koma-script). I need all of the sections listed in the TOC to be the same size font (12pt) as the rest of the text of the thesis and they cannot be bold.

Re: Installing Lyx on nfs
Gerasimos Grammatikopoulos wrote: A. All istances of Lyx in your network will be executed on the NFS server (based on the machine's specs and average Lyx usage from your people, try to estimate if the server can take the extra load). It most probably can, since LyX is not executed on the server. Only the binary and some support files are read on startup, so startup time could be a little bit slower, but during normal editing everything sits in the cache (local memory on the client machine), so you have no load on the server. B. You should probably similarly `centralise' your tetex installation to avoid inconsistencies. This could be quite the pain... Not really. If you have a standard tetex install on every machine, you only need set the TEXMFLOCAL environment variable to a directory on the server, where you store your additional packages etc. Georg

Lyx under Windows, latex not useable
Hello everyone, I recently reinstalled my windows and thus had to reinstall Miktex and Lyx. For an obscure reason Lyx (even the new version 1.7) doesn't want to work anymore because it can't use latex. Miktex 2.4 is well configured (TexnicCenter works) and latex is in my PATH : $ latex This is e-TeX, Version 3.141592-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.4) ** Running configure, it appears that Lyx doesn't find a proper latex : $ ./configure checking for a LaTeX2e program... (latex latex2e) +checking for latex... not useable +checking for latex2e... no I have already seen this message on the internet (including this mailing list) but it was on Linux systems and the answers were more than fuzzy about the origin of the problem. Is that because Miktex now uses e-tex and Lyx wants Latex2e ? Is there something that should be in my PATH that isn't yet ? I really don't understand what I have done wrong because both Miktex and Lyx are freshly installed. Thanks in advance, Kevin

I've also tried {empty} with the same lack of results. \clearpage and \cleardoublepage also do not affect the headers and footers.

I've managed to get this working for the sections and subsections in body of the thesis, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it in the TOC where sections end up being bold san serif (the rest of the text is Roman). Have you looked at the user docs for koma-script? I _think_ that this is covered (no time here to check -- if not, the package toclof might help)... I've lookded at it, but couldn't find anything related to this issue. The doc-name (English version) is scrguien.pdf.

Re: Suppressing Page Number After Title Page
Hi! Try the solution in the documentation for fancyhdr, chapter those blank pages. Then you also get rid of the headings on the blank page before some chapters. The documentation is available for instance at: http://www.win.tue.nl/latex/documentation/fancyhdr.pdf. I found that neither \pagestyle{plain} nor \thispagestyle{empty} works for the following blank page. /Sara Jose' Matos wrote: On Friday 03 February 2006 16:42, Rich Shepard wrote: I should know how to do this, or find the correct macro in TLC2, but the answer has so far eluded me. Document is book class with fancy headers. Following the title page is a blank page with the page number '2' that I'd like to suppress. I've tried \frontmatter \pagestyle{plain} between the author and the Preface page. I've also tried {empty} with the same lack of results. \clearpage and \cleardoublepage also do not affect the headers and footers. Looking at TLC2 I don't see how to turn off the header and footer for this one page. A reminder would be greatly appreciated. In ERT in the title page: \thispagestyle{empty} I am kidding not. ;-) Thanks, Rich
Sequential numbering, not AMS
Hi, I was wondering whether it is possible to modify the behavior of the Enumerate style in LyX so that numbering is sequential throughout the document without embedding other environments in the Enumerate environment. Most importantly, I need numbering to not restart after new Sections and Subsections. Here is an example of what I need to accomplish: 1 Section 1 1. example 1 2. example 2 a. subexample 2a b. subexample 2b Standard text between examples, not embedded. After this paragraph, numbering continues: 3. example 3 4. example 4 2 Section 2 Standard text 5. example 5 6. example 6 and so on. I am aware of the packages covington.sty and gb4e.sty, but they conflict with some other packages I need to use on a regular basis... I even created a modified article.layout file with covington.sty as a special Numbered environment, but i was wondering if there is something simpler that I could do with \setcounter in the preamble, for example. I have tried using the document class article (AMS, sequential numbering), but it doesn't seem to do what I described above, either. Thanks in advance, and sorry if I missed something obvious.

OK ... but what precisely is the bug? What goes wrong with the conversion from the old preferences file to the new? When I try it here, the conversion from 1.3.5 to 1.3.7 goes smoothly, so if there is a problem with the installer script I need more information. Could you send me the following: (a) your 1.3.5 preferences file, (b) the 1.3.7 preferences file that the lyx installer produces, and (c) the 1.3.7 preferences file that works? Bennett On 03/02/2006, at 8:04 PM, Patrick De Visschere wrote: Ian, I had similar problems and solved it by removing all the preference-files (old and new). From 1.3.5 on the preferences have been moved from ~/.lyx/ to ~/ Library/Application Support/lyx/ When upgrading the lyx installer moves the files but apparently something goes wrong causing lyx to look in the wrong places. I upgraded from 1.3.5 to 1.3.7 and got your problem, although tetex and all classes were present as before. I'm not sure but it is possible that the paths in the preferences-dialog were empty; maybe supplying the missing paths may also help.
