Maths Autocorrect With More Than Two Characters
Dear LyX Users, Do you know if its possible to have (arbitrary) custom maths autocorrections in LyX. For example, if I type ‘-->’ I would like lyx to automatically replace it with ‘⟶’. LyX does support this, but only if the input sequence is two characters, for example ‘=>’ will be replaced by ‘⇒’. (I did find a file ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.3\Resources\autocorrect’ but I’m not sure as the best way of modifying it). It would also be nice if I could get this working in normal text mode as well, I noticed that LyX replaces ‘--’ with ‘–’, but I was unable to find a way of adding extra completions. If none of these features are present in LyX, would it be OK and not too difficult if I tried to implement these myself? — Isaac Oscar Gariano

re: Jabref
Wolfgang Enlelmann asked about window hiding with Jabref. I think the only universal solution for all OS's is to use the button to hide the Jabref main window, which reveals the entry window below..

I contributed some (biblatex-related) patches to this project, but it ended in frustration (the project manager eventually removed all of it again without even discussing with anybody). Now I have to maintain a fork in order to keep those features. Jürgen > Riki > signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
