Anyone knows why the download page still says (prior to 10.6) ?

It shouldn't. LyX 1.6.5 in general works fine on 10.6.

Re: LyZ: LyX plugin for Zotero

[John Kane]

Progress report. It Works! 

 After much misreading and mistyping of pipe names I got LyZ to work but kept 
getting compile errors.  Much bad language later I realised that LyZ was 
working perfectly. 

Either I or Zotero seems to be inserting weird characters into the page number 
entering †instead of - in some cases. So on to the Zotero forums

Thanks for a great application.

 Hello,
 I have cleaned up the plugin a bit and added some new
 functionality. It can now update the bibtex file with any
 changes made in Zotero.
 Currently the cite keys are customizable, but I am thinking
 about removing this feature. Are there any serious reasons
 why custom cite keys are important? I want to keep them
 readable, so the LyX dialog can be used side by side with
 Zotero, e.g. to change text before and after, because this
 cannot be done through the pipe (only insertion is
 possible).

Hi,

Does anyone know of a way to use Textmate-style snippets in LyX? It
would speed up entering complex math formulas.

A Question regarding fonts

[Kamran Hameed]

Folks i just started to use Lyx a couple of days before. I am writing a
manual for a software. There are certain lines of code for which i want to
set the font as Courier. Now i went to Document-Settings but i couldnt do
any thing useful. Then i tried LyX Code from its drop down. It works fine
but the problem is that when i want to set LyX code for only one line or one
word, it sets it for the whole paragraph and alots of lines..

Is there any work around?

I am not sure whether that's the correct info. There were problems with
LyX 1.6.4(.0) and OSX 10.6, but LyX 1.6.5 should work with 10.6 (as well
as 1.6.4.2). 

Anyone knows why the download page still says "(prior to 10.6)" ?
