export problem on LyX for Windows

2009-09-13 Thread Sivan Frenkel 
Hi, I'm a new LyX user (version 1.6.4 on Windows XP)

I cannot export or update a LyX  file to any format except text. I already 
found out this is due to the path of my file, and other paths are possible. I 
guess this is because my windows version is in Hebrew, and so are the names of 
some folders. 

My question: is there a way to change definitions so export will work even when 
the file's path contains hebrew (non-english) letters? if so, how? if no, could 
an older version of LyX support that?

thanks,
Sivan

Yes, LyX will not work on Windows when the path where it is installed contains accented or non-latin 
characters.

Not that I know. I suggest to reinstall LyX in a path without Hewbrew characters. This must be 
possible because we have Hebrew LyX on Windows.
