lyx live
Hello, I found on the internet a lyx live DVD, but it seems old (2013). Is there any recent version? Thank. === Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdu...@gmx.com Laboratoire interdisciplinaire Carnot de Bourgogne 9 Avenue Alain Savary, BP 47870, 21078 DIJON Cedex FRANCE Tel: +33 (0)380395988 ===

LyX (and supporting software) does not originate on windows, so I'd expect the windows ports to not need to mess with the registry anyway. running from a CD would at very least require a changed PATH setting so the various binaries will be found. That can be done from the command line (or a .bat file), without touching the registry. Helge Hafting

Re: Building a Lyx live CD for Windows
Hello Renaud, So I am thinking of a CD or a USB mass storage medium which would provide a ready-to-use Lyx (with the required third party software). there is a portable lyx on portableapps: http://portableapps.com/node/9880 I tried it on usb-stick, but it worked only on my computer, where lyx is installed on hard-disc. I didn't get it working on a computer without installed lyx. there seems to be a problem. perhaps you are more lucky.
