Berthold Hi, I found the following problem in buffer.C. When writing

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.

Thanks for your report. This has been reported a few weeks ago, but is

*.lyx --- *.pdf ??

2000-09-12 Thread Haight Ashbury


Maybe a ltiitle Off-Topic, but does anybody know how I can convert

You can use these:
1) use ps2pdf to convert .ps in .pdf
2) use pdflatex to generate a .pdf from .tex

You can convert ps documents to pdf using ps2pdf. 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.

1) If you know that you will be posting from a different address, you

the Window Name

2000-09-12 Thread Paolo M. Pumilia

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?

the Window Name

2000-09-12 Thread Paolo M. Pumilia

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

You can use these:
1) use ps2pdf to convert .ps in .pdf
2) use pdflatex to generate a .pdf from .tex

You can convert ps documents to pdf using ps2pdf. 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.

virus again

2000-09-12 Thread Mate Wierdl

After this message, I will remove the subscriber's only requirement to

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.
