It's this way if I compile from the repo branch 2.3.x and from Riki's tarballs. -- Eugene -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel

Like: $ lyx -console and since we sometimes need the output in the command window, it should not be disabled at cmake-configuration time. This is also the reason that console is on by default for the MSVC compiler.

I compiled and built Windows installer as before with the 2.3.x betainstallers. Should I have toggled the CMake setting to suppress/deactivate the command window?

LyX tries to run py -2 and py -3 to detect some Python installation, but I thought this was due to my using a nonbundled version of Python. -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel

I've installed 2.4.0 testing on a windows 10 machine. 1. when launching LyX the command window remains open. 2. the first preview encountered (e.g. math inset with preview On) generates this message twice in the command window: RunCommand: could not terminate child process: Invalid argument Subsequent previews do not generate the message. 3. a small cosmetic detail.
