filename.lyx archive format?

2003-06-06 Thread Rithvik Vinekar
Hi there. This is the first time I've subscribed to the list, although I have 
used lyx a lot before, for my school projects. I had this problem with it.

If I save a word .doc document, it is saved with embedded images etc. It 
doesn't happen in lyx. I have a lyx document (eeg.lyx - concerning my EEG 
project) with many embedded eps and epslatex images. My problem is that I 
have saved eeg.lyx, but the images are lost, since I did not back them up 
(they were sourced from numerous places on filesystem  and I didn't bother to 
search for each of them)
I've learnt the hard way to set aside a directory for all these images then 
source them in the lyx document. Now I'm comfortable with this, but it still 
is a pain.
My question is, is it possible to save the lyx file+all source images etc in 
one archive in one go? In other words, the document is the lyx source + all 
source images that are meant to be embedded in it, in an archive.
It would save a lot of people from faulty backups.

If it is not already, it would be a lovely feature to add.

No(t yet).

You could have a look a bugzilla.lyx.org whether there exists a similar
feature request, and if not, file it there to make sure it is not
forgotten.
