Re: prettyref latex errors - again
then when you use prettyref, you have to type \prettyref{eq|Max4} instead
Is there no way to get lyx to put in the | instead of the : directly or to
figure something out so I don't have to actually type the stuff? That's kinda
the benefit of using Lyx over direct Tex. You don't have to type as much
weird code up.
Besides for a document that's already written there's not much I can do but go
back and change every one of the hundreds of references... right?

Re: formatting a long equation
I see.. I used the AMS multiline to split it up.. btw, is there any documentation on using the AMS environments in LyX with the Insert - Math menu options?

inlinebib.sty, package for putting references as footnotes

There are two errors here:
Error #1: An error when we want to view a document that contains Arabic text
through view - PDF.
LaTeX Error: \begin{arabtext} on input line 16 ended by \end{document}.
\end{document}
Your command was ignored.
Type I command return to replace it with another command,
or return to continue without it.
The above error will occur only and only if the paragraph direction that
contains Arabic is right to left, and this happen when the first letter in
the paragraph is Arabic. The workaround is just to insert a space or any
whitespace after the last Arabic letter.
Error #2: If we want to generate the PDF file through File - Export - LaTeX,
then use texi2pdf. In this case I get these errors:
LaTeX Warning: Unused global option(s):
[arabic,english].
(./basmala.aux) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/arabtex/uxnsh.fd) . / . / ##
! LaTeX Error: \begin{arabtext} on input line 14 ended by \end{document}.

A space at the end of the file won't solve the problem if it contains some
formatting. For example if the tex file looks like this
\begin{document}
\begin{arabtext}
\begin{center}ÈÓå Çääç\end{center}
ÈÓå Çääç\end{arabtext}
\end{document}
I need to add a space before \end{center} AND \end{document}. In short a space
before any LaTeX code that follows an Arabic text. You can also see here the
the line added after \end{arabtext} which should be before it as Juergen
Spitzmueller noticed already.
Note: to edit the LaTeX file I have to use katoob or vim since the other
editors I am aware of (like kwrite, kedit, ...) will corrupt any Arabic text
encoded in iso 8859-6.
