IMO, there shouldn't be lots of different ways of looking at the TOC. Seems like overkill and too many features. Why have a separate menu of the TOC when you can get it with keys, mouseclick, or menu selection? -Amir

Allan, are you trying to goad me into suggesting replacing your conv.sh with perl? For example, you'd then have a simple interface with gtkconvert, which is already in perl. But also, I have to imagine the things that you're finding tough will become easier. (Maybe not a lot easier, if you don't k

FWIW, as someone who's not contributing to lyx at all right now, let me come down on the side of opposing red dots except when absolutely necessary. Each thing you add to LyX makes it that much more confusing for new users, in addition to becoming more cluttered for experienced users. For languag

lyx.org links

2000-04-04 Thread Amir Karger
JMarc, my point is that a 1.1.4 plus the two patches is more stable than plain 1.1.4, so there should be somewhere that a person can download the patched sources from! Remember, we're trying to keep LyX stable during development. Most people won't have the energy to download 1.1.4 and the patches

I've got a bit more faith in Andre's tex2lyx converter. Using LaTeX to translate LaTeX isn't just a cool hack---it happens to be the best way to read LaTeX. That is, we know that LaTeX won't have any trouble reading LaTeX input, even if it isn't "well-behaved". What that means is that you won't b

eople come up with different ways to write the same thing, which makes reading them all very tough. So for example, I've never used $$, and I'd be happy to just get rid of the '$$' token, so that $$ would always be interpreted as two '$' tokens next to each other. But other people may use $$ all the time, and they'd be pretty unhappy if I "broke" reLyX by making this fix. -Amir Karger
