Hi, Is it strictly necessary to uninstall former LyX versions ahead of installing 1.5.1 using the hereabove installer or official one's or can it be executed directly ? thanks and regards Paul
č in BibTeX
Hi, how do I get the character č in BibTeX/ plain latex? I just found \check{c} in math-mode, but no way to insert č in BibTeX... Regards, Toby

Re: [announce] completely revised LyX UserGuide - request for testing
The images directory in the Lyx-1.5 install directory is empty. Therefore, I cannot compile the file into a dvi ps or pdf. I searched my entire disk and the image files referenced in the user guide are not installed. FYI, I am running Lyx 1.5 on a Mac (haven't upgraded to 1.5.1 yet).

Re: [announce] completely revised LyX UserGuide - request for testing
The "images" directory in the Lyx-1.5 install directory is empty. Therefore, I cannot compile the file into a dvi ps or pdf. I searched my entire disk and the image files referenced in the user guide are not installed. FYI, I am running Lyx 1.5 on a Mac (haven't upgraded to 1.5.1 yet).

You're confusing the install directory (which on Mac is contained within the LyX.app bundle) with the user's directory, which is at ~/ Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5. The images dir in the user's dir is indeed empty, but not LyX.app/Contents/Resources/images. (By the way, you really should upgrade to 1.5.1.) Bennett

Re: question about XeTex, ConTeXt and others
One other question about XeTeX, will it happily co-exist on the same XP machine as MikTeX? I like the idea of being able to use ttf fonts without the grief of trying to install them in MikTeX. Regards, Nick. -- Nick and Anne Hopton, Caversham, Reading, England.
date-insert again
date-insert command still exists in LyX 1.5.1 and is listed in http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyxFunctions it doesn't work for me. Is it my problem (I have a ~amd64 Gentoo install) or is more general ? let me know... -- ~adj~
