Installing styles
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I recently discovered LyX and am amazed and astounded at how wonderful it is! I've been asking myself, "Where has this program been all my life???" However, I've suddenly run into an area that is not well covered by the documentation, namely, adding styles. I want to write a linguistics paper and found the covington style over at CTUG for creating glosses and whatnot. However, I cannot find any instructions on how to install it. Here's what I have done: upon downloading covington.sty, I moved it to /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/misc (I'm running Debian, btw). I then ran 'texhash' as instructed by some other documentation for LaTeX on the web, and then started up LyX. I created a new document and in the preamble wrote '\usepackage{covington}' just like the documentation said. Then I wrote "Testing" as standard, and created a DVI--and got 36 errors. Note that I did not to create glosses or do anything other than write "Testing", so clearly I have either installed it incorrectly or need to do some other hand-waving to get it to work. Suggestions?
