By the way, why are we still using pipes? It seems that there was a discussion about switching it to sockets so it is more portable. Is that a awfully difficult thing to do, or it has some disadvantages? Thanks. Max

A new compiler and the new Xforms 1.0 library ... a lot of work the past week ;-) But now it's done: the new release 1.3.0 using the new Xforms-1.0-based frontend now is available for Windows, too. Download as usual from http://www.fh-hannover.de/mbau/tim/hentschel/lyx/index.htm Hopefully I can release Lyx using a Qt3-based frontend (like that known from KDE on Linux) the next days. At the moment there seems to be only one problem: converting eps images for viewing inside the Lyx window doesn't work. Have fun! Claus

I mean that, instead of having a script, one could launch LyX with some special --remote flag saying ``hey, I do not want to run you, but just send this command to another running lyx for me, will you?''. The interest of doing that is that you do not need to know what means of communication is used and also lyx will read its own prefs to guess where the pipe is. And if you run lyx 1.3.0 and lyx 1.4.0cvs at the same time with different .lyx dirs, you will be sure to communicate with the right one. JMarc

Can you get this to work with pipes?? If no, switching to sockets does not lose anything.

If I remember correctly, Netscape (i.e. Mozilla) creates a "lock"-file in the user's ~/.netscape/ directory like this: lrwxr-xr-x 17 Feb 13 18:45 lock -> 130.237.57.34:592 which is neat when you're using a networked file system. Then you can click on URL's shown on one machine and have netscape running on another machine show the new page. I guess you don't really need to have Netscape on this machine, but you do need something that can connect to the socket, i.e. 130.237.57.34:592 in this case. /Christian -- Christian Ridderström http://www.md.kth.se/~chr

You might not believe this... but our Solaris machines don't have SSH running and xhost has been disabled... however, I've still used: lyx --export ps somefile.lyx ; lpr somefile.ps on occassion, especially when the color printer only works from a specific Solaris machine. I think my point is that you can't really assume that you'll need a "graphical" connection... maybe you need to save bandwidth (modem)? > Or maybe you want to send commands to the running LyX of the guy next > door.

I did a search for 'date-insert' and noticed that it's actually mentioned in $LYXDIR/lyxrc.example. Is there somewhere (in the source) where I could find a listing of these commands, or is this perhaps an example of a typical LFUN? And I should therefore look in src/lyxfunc.C and src/commandtags.h ? This isn't the first time I've been thinking that there are probably lots of (more or less) useful commands (LFUNS?) that I don't know about. /Christian -- Christian Ridderström http://www.md.kth.se/~chr

html conversion
I use latex2html and can handle things find in command line style. On the other hand, I have tried converting in Lyx. Well, an html is created, all formulas appear in LaTex form. Not good. Further, I add the option -local_icons to carry over button images that latex2html uses; these are not carried over. (the latter was done through Edit->Preferences and the result appears in the /.lyx preferences file. Any thoughts?? best regards, b PS I am using the qt frontend. -- *** William O.

bibtex seems not runing in win2k
Hi, I am running Lyx (1.2.1) with Miktex and cygwin in Windows 2000. The View DVI shows my citation as [?]. The symptoms are (1) latex log file says undefined reference (2) In the lyx file, when I insert a citation, the bib entries in my bib file shows up fine. This means lyx can find my bib files. (3) lyx can find my IEEEtran.cls automatically. I guess it get some information from Miktex. In the bibtex box, it also find the IEEEbst.bst file. (4) My windows environment does not have environment variables such as BIBINPUTS and others. But the problem persists even if I added the environment variables in WIN2K. (5) View-Tex Information shows all the file lists as empty lists, although Help-Latex Configuration shows that Lyx has found almost all of the files. (6) My Miktex is running OK before and after I installed Lyx. Any clue about what is happening? It seems bibtex is not invoked at all. Thanks a lot, Eugene

bibtex seems not runing in win2k (additional information)
For the previous email reporting the citation missing, I was running a test file generated from the IEEEtran template. I did notice the buff bar showed that latex was run once and bibtex was not invoked. I just tried to New a file, and use IEEEtran.cls and all the reference worked! This time, bibtex was run and latex was invoked 3 times, as seen from the buff bar. So, it seems that previous bug is a bug of the template file of IEEEtran.

It will be good to have many ways of doing the same thing. So, we can add the sockets and keep the pipes. Max

Since your columns are already centered, you don't need to meake the header paragraphs centered. Select Block(default) alignment for them.
