Re: Bug in lyx-1.1.5fix1 (buffer.C)
"Berthold" == Berthold Gunreben [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Berthold Hi, I found the following problem in buffer.C. When writing Berthold a .lyx file, the \lyxformat line is written to the file from Berthold a float number. The problem is, when you have for example Berthold LANG=de_DE, the float does not look like \lyxformat 1.16 Berthold anymore, but it looks like \lyxformat 1,16 Because of this, Berthold the version is not read correctly from the file anymore, Berthold furthermore, I always find a suddenly appearing number 16 in Berthold all my after reading them.

Re: Internationalisation problem: Turkish i's

I find this the surest way to get useful pdf files. Lyx documents (i. e. those with the .lyx suffix) are only useful to Lyx itself. I don't know of any other software that interpets that particular format other than Lyx itself. So outut your document from Lyx in printable form (.ps format) and convert. BTW Xpdf doesn't work with my pdf files either. Try acroread (Acrobat reader) instead. xpdf seems to be still a beta thing. -- John Culleton -> Please visit http://ccpl.carr.org/~john/

virus again
After this message, I will remove the subscriber's only requirement to the list. A few remarks (and important to those who could not post to the list anymore) 1) If you know that you will be posting from a different address, you can subscribe that address to the list as well without receiving duplicate messages. All you need to do is to subscribe to the allow' list. For the devel list: echo| mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] For the users list: echo| mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can unsub similarly. 2) I could not block these viral messages based on subject: there were (eventually) 12 different subjects. 3) I will not authenticate based on From: or any other fields. It is insecure, and much easier to forge than envelope sender. Just consider the fact that over 20 of these messages had list subscribers in the From: line---while only 3 had subscribers as envelope sender. Mate

the Window Name
I noticed that the name of the window hosting my LyX editing session has the form 'LyX: filename', that is the path to the opened filename has been discarded. E.g., entering the command % /usr/bin/X11/lyx Notes/file1.lyx spawns a window with name 'LyX: file1.lyx' open Is there a way to preserve in the window name the original argument passed along with the command? thank you Pol -- Paolo Pumilia email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] o o o cstc o o o
