Controlling space after full stop

2005-06-02 Thread Andrew Sullivan
Hi, I'm using the packages courier and stdpage in order to produce correctly-formatted pages for a certain ASCII-based format. I then use dvi2tty to create an actual ASCII document. This works, except that the usual typesetting rules produce one space, not two, after a full stop. This makes

problem with multiline formula

2005-06-02 Thread Srinivas Nedunuri
I am unable to get the multiline formula format to work as described in the User Guide. It says that C-Enter ought to turn a formula into a multiline one, and that C-Tab allows you to seperate the left from the middle from the right. However, neither of these seem to be doing anything ("Unknown

installing a new TeX document class for LyXwin?
