I would be interested too.. I would also be interested in a tex2lyx standalone (ie. would run without one having lyx in his system) if this is possible. I just downloaded Angus's tex2lyx but Im not sure if it works for window users who installed lyx using cygwin (I didnt tried other lyx versions

ok great.. so I'll just wait until the 1.4.x comes up and the python er... anyway I'll just let 1.3.x import the 1.4.x lyxs which are still readable (but probably... Im not sure though, that after relyxing things would look better). and also, if the owner of this mailing list also reads this...
