Could be gloss package supported ?
Hello lyxers IIRC few days ago someone asked for a glossary support. I quickly checked the archives and it seemed to me that nobody hasn't point out a gloss based solution. Sorry if someone did it. As far as my knowledge is concerned one of the most useful packages regarding glossaries is gloss. This package uses bibtex to generate the entries in the same way that a bibliography does. Attached to this message you can find an example of a lyx file using gloss, glossary.lyx, and gloss-bibtex-like database of symbols, example_gloss. The sequence of commands to obtain the glossary is: lyx --export latex glossary.lyx latex glossary bibtex glossary % to generate the bibliography bibtex glossary.gls % to generate the glossary latex glossary I'd like to take advantage of this message to ask developers for a proper support of this package. IMHO it is only needed a menu entry completely analogous to Insert-List and TOC - BibTeX Reference ... but with GlossTeX, some latex commands to the preamble and that lyx takes care of the execution of bibtex $1.gls when a GlossTeX Reference is inserted. I always thought that this can not be very difficult however I could be completely wrong, so sorry if this is not the case. Hope at least someone could benefit of the advantages of gloss.

problem with metapost files
Hello lyxers I have recently upgraded to lyx-1.2.3 from lyx -1.1.6fix4 and I am experiencing some problems with the inclusion of graphic files. I am trying to include the output of metapost files, let's say fnflm.0 and when I try to view the postscript lyx says that: No information for converting from 0 to eps which is annoying because the fnflm.0 is and almost ready eps file, there is no need to convert from 0 to eps because includegraphics is able to read *.0 files. In fact old version of lyx were able to do that. BTW with the new version, am i obliged to especify every graphic conversion to eps format? Then an error occur, saying something like: Latex file fnflm not found \begin{center}\includegraphics{fnflm}\end{center} could not locate the files with any of these extensions .eps, ..ps, .eps.gz, .ps.gz, eps.Z it seems that lyx skipped the 0 extension, Why? The funniest thing is that if I export the file to latex and run latex on it the result is correct. Moreover the 0 extension is not deleted by lyx.and therefore latex can find the metapost file. What can i do? Am i missing something important? Thank you for all your help Best wishes -- http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar Roman Polanski makes his own blood.
