Release of LyX 1.1.3.

1999-11-30 Thread Lars Gullik Bjønnes


Even if we are still busy doing a lot of code shuffling and cleanup we
have time to release a new version.

New Features:
- the -dbg command line switch is enhanced. f.ex. "-dbg lyxrc"
works now. 
- lightly better handling of dependency tracking for bibtex files.
- new lyxfunc: command-sequence. Makes it possible to run
several lyxfuncs with one command.
- possible to use a more formal regex in file dialogs
- incomplete support for CVS as revision control backend, use
with _extreme_ care.
- it is now possible to redefine the font used in lyxcode
Updates:
- g-brief updated
Bug Fixes:
- output ~ and ^ as \textasciitilde and \textasciicircum
- tth invocation should now be correct

Possibly broken:
- literate support  (no reports in either direction)

Also LyX no longer outputs data and creator into the .lyx files.

Note that the internal code changes have been great, so unwanted bugs
might have sneaked in. No serious bugs have been reported, but use
with care.

LyX 1.1.3 can be downloaded from:

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-1.1.3.tar.tgz
(will be moved to stable if few/no serious bugs are reported)
ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.1.3.tar.gz

I am sure that pointers to rpm's for Redhat will be posted soon.

The newest lyx-1.1.3 RPM's can be found at

ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/pub/lyx/lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/pub/lyx/tetex-lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm

The source RPM is at:

ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/pub/lyx/lyx-1.1.3-1.src.rpm

To the people that make RPM's for older Redhat or SUSE/other Linux versions:

NOW is the time for all good packagers to come to the aid of their
international community! Package up lyx-1.1.3 from these RPMs and
then upload them to ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/incoming

Hi everyone,

The RH5.1 RPMs are available at:

ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/pub/lyx/lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.RH51.rpm

Hi,
I just uploaded to ftp://ftp.sylvan.com/incoming :
lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm.RH51.rpm
tetex-lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm.RH51.rpm
and their exact copies :
lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm.RH51.rpm.copy
tetex-lyx-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm.RH51.rpm.copy
(Please make a binary compare between them and in case they are different
inform me).
These rpms were created on a RedHat 5.1 system with standard egcs-1.0.2,
so they should work on all RedHat 5.x systems.
They don't work on a RedHat 6.1 system (segmentation fault), thus, most
probably, they don't work on any RedHat 6.x system.
The lyx contains an annoying feature. I get tons of messages :
enter process
finished variables
normalkey (deadkey)
per every key that I press. They seem to come from the Trans::process
function (src/trans.C). How can I get rid of it ?
I have also noted that lyx cannot display German "SS". I get in the lyx
window "\ss{}" instead of the proper character (I'm using the
european.kbd).
Thanks in advance,
Jacek.
