Paolo I noticed that extended ascii characters cannot be included in
Paolo labels to equations. In the present case, it happens that the
Paolo character "à" is correctly rendered within the label, while in
Paolo the editing session, but it disappears the next time the file
Paolo will be opened. That happens even though latin1 encoding has
Paolo been set in the document layout.

Paolo Could that limitation be easily removed in the netx LyX
Paolo version?

I think the accented characters will be kept if LC_CTYPE is set to a
reasonable value, like LC_CTYPE="it_IT.ISO8859-1". This is not
completely right, but somebody would have to look at the code, which
needs a serious cleanup. Then you'll have to make sure that LaTeX can
actually handle such labels.
