That tar.gz contains a Cygwin package to be installed through the setup.exe installation tool.

LyX and Cygwin
Dear LyX-users, I am writing some scripts to create PDFs from a number of LyX files. I use Windows, but to maximize cross-platform portability, I'm writing the scripts for Cygwin so that they can run on unix and MacOS. I would like to know whether one of the following three options is preferable: 1. Add my current Windows installation of LyX and MikTeX to my Cygwin PATH variable, so cygwin can find lyx.exe, etc. 2. In Cygwin, install the most recent version of LyX (and, presumably, texlive or some other latex engine) and run the cygwin scripts using these. 3. Download the tar.gz Cygwin binary directly from http://www.lyx.org/Download and [install? compile?] it. This is currently a bit beyond my ability, although I could learn. Any other general tips for Cygwin and LyX are of course appreciated. Thanks, BL PS - W7-64, LyX 2.0.8, MikTeX 2.9.

In case it assists anyone else in the future.
I couldn't get the \nextfoot variable to work Jean, because I didn't
know how to write it, so probably wrote it wrong.
But this works a treat placed at the bottom of the preamble to drop the
page number down a bit, or a lot in my case.
\setlength{\footskip}{4cm}
That can be be "pts" as well instead of "cm" or "mm"
Hope that helps someone else.
Thanks again Jean.
Be well,
Charlie

Hi Charlie, You can add the line ",enlargefirstpage=true" at the end of the class options in the preamble (between the lines "%,refline=wide%" and "}" in my lyx version). Also, to get my page number on the second page lower to the bottom of the page, at the moment it is about 50mm from the bottom. I think this has something to do with the same setting that would fix the above. The foot position on the first page does not apply to the next pages. You will probably need to define your \nextfoot variable. I never tried, most of my letters are one page ;-) HTH -- jmp
Re: Ctrl-Enter handling is different whether AMS math is used explicitly or automatically
01/05/2014 23:59, Wil: Since I never needed to explicitly enable amsmath until I started working with parent/child documents, I never noticed this behavior until now. The behavior makes sense to me after I thought about it for a minute, but it was surprising nonetheless. I've seen this behavior in versions 2.0.3, 2.0.6, and 2.1.0 in (debian) Linux; and 2.0.3 and 2.1.0 in Mac OS X (where the keystroke is Command-Enter.) I agree that it is strange. Would you have an idea on how to improve the behavior? I warn you though that "add a new prefrence" is not a valid answer :) JMarc
Re: converting from LyX 2.0 to 2.1
01/05/2014 22:59, Steve Litt: That being said, I always thought LyX was supposed to convert even my LyX 1.4.x files to modern format. In other words, I hope no developers ever becomes complacent with LyX only converting formats from the last couple years. Actually, lyx2lyx converts file from version 0.6. But there has to be bugs. And if we find'em, we fix'em. JMarc
