Spellchecker once again
Hello, after switching from xforms to LyX-qt-1.3.0 I had some troubles to get running my spellchecker! Following the advice of Juergen I retrieved new GNU-Aspell and the German dictionary (aspell-de) packages. After building debs (for Woody) I installed these by using checkinstall. Everything went on smoothly, but finally I receive same old, weird error message, that LyX doesn't find a suitable wordlist to the tagdeutsch. Ok, so I tried to customize under preferences menue an appropriate wordlist (which actually reside in /usr/local/lib). Suprise, in preferences on personal wordbook I only find that LyX is looking for *.ispell files, which aren't install at default by aspell-0.50-3!! Here is /usr/local/lib/aspell ls de_CH.multi de_DE.multi de.multi deutsch.alias swiss.alias de_CH-only.rws de_DE-only.rws de-only.rws german.alias A global search on *.ispell ended up unsuccessfully!? Even Johns proprosal to make softlink form german to deutsch seems to be not working since there are no files named like this!?

installing Bst files properly
Hi there - well I'm probably a complete newbie in this area and despite intent searching on the internet I'm still no close to the answer I need... so here goes: My major goal is to write my entire PhD thesis under Lyx (mostly for philosophical reasons). but I need to be able to use bibtex for referencing and a correct form of APA quoting Citing. Thing is all the .bst files I've downloaded and uploaded to where all the other bsts are seem to give out errors or not work at all when I xdvi them... Is there a document anywhere that will allow me to configure Lyx to work perfectly? Or will I have to do it all from scratch (not a positive prospect!)... Is there any setup issues that I'm flaunting?

Put
\bibpunct{(}{)}{;}{a}{,}{,}
in the preamble.
You can read the natbib documentation by typing
texdoc natbib
in your shell.
I'll write a howto for this though - can be useful for other budding
psychologists!
It would be useful if you write it as part of the LyX documentation
(section 3.1 of Extended.lyx).
Re: installing Bst files properly
I think that this depends on what bst you are using.
In the past I have put \usepackage [authoryear,round] {natbib} in my
preamble but there may be a better way to do it in new versions of lyx.
These days I use the harvard package which uses round as standard.

embedding bbl files
A conference I have a paper accepted at insists that I embed my .bbl file (generated by bibtex) into by .tex file. This seems like a dumb requirement to me but I don't make the rules. I assume it's so they have to deal with only one file instead of two. Now, since I generate my .tex file from my lyx file, I must do this embedding manually which is not hard to do but easy to forget if you make additional changes to your lyx file and must regenerate your .tex file. I know its a dumb request but it would be nice if lyx could do this for me automattically if I set some flag. I certainly don't expect to see this implemented soon but thought it worth mentioning.

But Harvard won't do APA - it's too simple and logical ;-)

Put
\bibpunct{(}{)}{;}{a}{,}{,}
in the preamble.
You can read the natbib documentation by typing
texdoc natbib
in your shell.
I'll write a howto for this though - can be useful for other budding
psychologists!
It would be useful if you write it as part of the LyX documentation
(section 3.1 of Extended.lyx).
Re: installing Bst files properly
I think that this depends on what bst you are using.
In the past I have put \usepackage [authoryear,round] {natbib} in my
preamble but there may be a better way to do it in new versions of lyx.
These days I use the harvard package which uses round as standard.

embedding bbl files
A conference I have a paper accepted at insists that I embed my .bbl file (generated by bibtex) into by .tex file. This seems like a dumb requirement to me but I don't make the rules. I assume it's so they have to deal with only one file instead of two. Now, since I generate my .tex file from my lyx file, I must do this embedding manually which is not hard to do but easy to forget if you make additional changes to your lyx file and must regenerate your .tex file. I know its a dumb request but it would be nice if lyx could do this for me automattically if I set some flag. I certainly don't expect to see this implemented soon but thought it worth mentioning.

Spellchecker once again
Hello, after switching from xforms to LyX-qt-1.3.0 I had some troubles to get running my spellchecker! Following the advice of Juergen I retrieved new GNU-Aspell and the German dictionary (aspell-de) packages. After building debs (for Woody) I installed these by using checkinstall. Everything went on smoothly, but finally I receive same old, weird error message, that LyX doesn't find a suitable wordlist to the tag"deutsch". Ok, so I tried to customize under preferences menue an appropriate wordlist (which actually reside in /usr/local/lib). Suprise, in preferences on "personal wordbook" I only find that LyX is looking for *.ispell files, which aren't install at default by aspell-0.50-3!! Here is /usr/local/lib/aspell ls de_CH.multi de_DE.multi de.multi deutsch.alias swiss.alias de_CH-only.rws de_DE-only.rws de-only.rws german.alias A global search on *.ispell ended up unsuccessfully!? Even Johns proprosal to make softlink form german to deutsch seems to be not working since there are no files named like this!? So this brings me back to my former question how to manage getting my spellchecker to work? Do I miss something!? cheers Thomas

installing Bst files properly
Hi there - well I'm probably a complete newbie in this area and despite intent searching on the internet I'm still no close to the answer I need... so here goes: My major goal is to write my entire PhD thesis under Lyx (mostly for philosophical reasons). but I need to be able to use bibtex for referencing and a correct form of APA quoting Citing. Thing is all the .bst files I've downloaded and uploaded to where all the other bsts are seem to give out errors or not work at all when I xdvi them... Is there a document anywhere that will allow me to configure Lyx to work perfectly? Or will I have to do it all from scratch (not a positive prospect!)... Is there any setup issues that I'm flaunting? The basic quoatation I want is of the style ( I think it's standard APA): Flavell et al (1998) approached the current issue (Flavell et al, 1990) Ref: Flavell, J. , Herrera, S & Flea, M. (1998), Journal of Whatever, 96 250-563 any help would be most appreciated! Mark -- The University of Stirling is a university established in Scotland by charter at Stirling, FK9 4LA.
