This is rather a side effect of most efficient parallel background processing of generation. LyX now uses exec() call, which is unfortunately (or fortunately from security perspective) unable to run scripts (I think under Unices, too). It means that call to the .bat or .cmd under Windows have to be invoked though execution of cmd.exe with proper arguments. If memory serves me well, Enrico solved the problem and it might even be fixed in version 2.0.1 already. -- Julien

CAS in LyX 2.0 Windows doesn't work
Hi Is there any workaround for using octave/maxima etc. in LyX 2.0 on windows? I read somewhere on the mail-list, that this release is not able to execute batch-files on windows anymore. Why would they remove this feature? It works great in 1.6 (and for other OS in ver. 2.0 for that matter). Regards Anders
