The change of the output of the configure command has been done in

I don't think that the two statements can be connected

Kile is a pure Qt-app so all the magic is handled internally by Qt. LyX is
not a pure Qt app so everything must be translated at the boundary bwtween
the LyX core and the Qt libraries. Sometimes we mess up. Sometimes Qt do.
We have some control over our own mess ups.

 Now I don't know much about the lyx-format, but this looks a bit strange
 considering where it came from... With this input, lyx2lyx hangs!
 forever.

  lyx2lyx must trust in some way the input file. It is very difficult to 
distinguish and guard against all the different possibilities. At least 
with regard to older lyx formats. That is one of the main reasons why we 
have been cleaning the file format in 1.4, actually we had more file format 
changes in 1.4 than all the previous versions combined. (!) :-)

 Workaround/solution: put a blank after the closing $, like this:
 $x$ **.

 (@Günter Milde: next item for the latex-import-wiki: avoid having
 something directly after the closing math-$.)

 Note that if a thing like $x$** exists only once in the source, then
 lyx2lyx doesn't hang but the output is of course not what it's intended
 to be. And if the source is just the line $7$**  $4$** (without the
 tabular), same thing: no hang, but strange lyx output.

 Hey -- wait a minute: relyx is written in perl, right? Maybe $* gets
 evaluated directly by perl although it's not supposed to be? (Don't know
 what's the special meaning of $* in perl.) Oh well, just a wild idea.

 I hope this is useful for the relyx-programmer(s) to squash the bug...

  That is the problem. The perl code can be quite difficult to grok, and no 
one here has enough knowledge to fix it. :-(

You mean that they are cited in the text, but that there's no Reference
section at the end of the document with the cited entries? That's not
easy.

You can do it with a bit of hacking and a script though.

First, gather together all your citations:

$ sed -n -f citation_keys.sed yourfile.lyx | sort -u | \
  sed -f citation_1liner.sed  citation_keys.txt

I attach both sed files.

Then, use this dataset to create yet another sed script and use that to
modify the attached script, bib2bbl.sh.in

$ sed s/CITATION_DATA/`cat citation_keys.txt`/ bib2latex.sh.in  \
  bib2latex.sh

Finally, run this shell script to generate a latex file of your references.
Something like:

$ sh bib2latex.sh docs/references.bib citations.tex plainnat article

where docs/references.bib is my BibTeX database and the output is to go in
citations.tex

You should even be able to import this document into LyX and output as
ASCII ;-)

Hope it works but caveat emptor.

You could run a dvi to ASCII converter (like dvi2tty) after exporting to dvi.
See man dvi2tty for usage. 
The output quality is said to be low, though.

You could even define a new ASCII(dvi2tty) format and converters in

Re: Spacing in List of Tables

[Stephen Buonopane]

  This is one the copyeditor caught. In the list of tables, the table
numbers are left-aligned and there's a small space between the number 
and
the table caption. This works fine until it gets to Chapter 12, Table 
10 and
beyond. With the four digits (and separating period; e.g., 12.10) 
there is
no longer a space between the digits and the title.

Rich,
I think this will take a bit of latex hacking, but there might also be 
some package out there that does this?
The command \listoftables uses a predefined List environment, so you 
need to change \labelwidth that is defined by \listoftables. My first 
try would be to use a \renewcommand. You might also dig around in your 
tex tree a bit and look at the Latex code that is invoked by 
\listoftables.

Use after the chapter names the command
\addcontentsline{ext}{type}{text}
in ERT. ext is the file extension for the list: toc for the TOC, 
lof for the list of figures, and lot for the list of tables. type 
is the paragraph type, in your case chapter.
E.g. for Preface, you have to write:

\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\numberline{}Preface}
The commands \protect\numberline{} are added to indent the toc entry 
so that it is at the position of normal chapters entries, that have a 
number at the beginning. (look at the attached example)

Note: If you're using a koma-script class, you can directly use the 
Addchap environment for chapters that should appear without numbers in 
the toc.

Only for information: You don't need the \makeatxxx commands when you 
use them in the preamble, because LyX does this automatically in the 
background.

  But they also recommend adjusting other commands, too, to keep a balanced

Changing the [EMAIL PROTECTED] command is not always necessary, its your 
decision what looks nice and what not.
I changed it because I have subsubsections with long numbers in my 
document (something like 12.13.17).

  I've tried your examples (at the top) with more room on the last

Play a bit with the parameter values, my examples are optimized for

Uwe,
  Please excuse my frustration. Here's what I've learned from my
experimentation:
  1.) With the [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the preamble, the spacing is
drastically altered, but the List of Tables still has 10.10 and 10.11
smashed against the text.
  2.) With the [EMAIL PROTECTED] in an ERT box between the gray
placeholder boxes for List of Figures and List of Tables, the literal
command prints at the end of the List of Figures and the two problem table
numbers have no more spacing.
  Searching through Chapter 2 of TLC2 (and checking the index) I don't see a
way to increase number spacing for only the .lot entries. Is there such a
way? Perhaps I did not have the LaTeX commands properly formatted in the ERT
box and that's why it was read as literal text rather than a command.
Thanks,
Rich

 That mechanism is triggered only if you click on the blighter or such

 invoke it as python path to/lyx2lyx.
 
 Actually, at least in XP (and, presumably, Win2003), if the association
 for the py file extension is correct, running foo.py from the command
 line works fine, as does eg system(foo.py).  I didn't bother testing
 OS functions like CreateProcess, or check the source to see how lyx2lyx
 is being run.  It's a bit moot as long as lyx2lyx doesn't have an extension.

It has no extension.

I think one thing that could and should be offered is to add the
possibility to create a label in the 'insert reference' dialog. I
usually write someting, notice that I need to refere to some place, then
need ages to scroll up to that place, insert the label, go down again,
insert the reference. Having a box where all unlabled chapters and

 Is there a way of making Lyx understand .pstex_t file with that color

Quick  dirty: Define \def\color[#1]#2{} in your preamble - or better:

 I find when writing that a common procedure is to first create a label and

 So I have a feauture request

the LyX core and the Qt libraries. Sometimes we mess up. Sometimes Qt do.
We have some control over our own mess ups.

 Now I don't know much about the lyx-format, but this looks a bit strange
 considering where it came from... With this input, lyx2lyx hangs!
 forever.

  lyx2lyx must trust in some way the input file. It is very difficult to 
distinguish and guard against all the different possibilities. At least 
with regard to older lyx formats. That is one of the main reasons why we 
have been cleaning the file format in 1.4, actually we had more file format 
changes in 1.4 than all the previous versions combined. (!) :-)

 Workaround/solution: put a blank after the closing $, like this:
 $x$ **.

 (@Günter Milde: next item for the latex-import-wiki: avoid having
 something directly after the closing math-$.)

 Note that if a thing like $x$** exists only once in the source, then
 lyx2lyx doesn't hang but the output is of course not what it's intended
 to be. And if the source is just the line $7$**  $4$** (without the
 tabular), same thing: no hang, but strange lyx output.

 Hey -- wait a minute: relyx is written in perl, right? Maybe $* gets
 evaluated directly by perl although it's not supposed to be? (Don't know
 what's the special meaning of $* in perl.) Oh well, just a wild idea.

 I hope this is useful for the relyx-programmer(s) to squash the bug...

  That is the problem. The perl code can be quite difficult to grok, and no 
one here has enough knowledge to fix it. :-(

You mean that they are cited in the text, but that there's no Reference
section at the end of the document with the cited entries? That's not
easy.

You can do it with a bit of hacking and a script though.

First, gather together all your citations:

$ sed -n -f citation_keys.sed yourfile.lyx | sort -u | \
  sed -f citation_1liner.sed  citation_keys.txt

I attach both sed files.

Then, use this dataset to create yet another sed script and use that to
modify the attached script, bib2bbl.sh.in

$ sed s/CITATION_DATA/`cat citation_keys.txt`/ bib2latex.sh.in  \
  bib2latex.sh

Finally, run this shell script to generate a latex file of your references.
Something like:

$ sh bib2latex.sh docs/references.bib citations.tex plainnat article

where docs/references.bib is my BibTeX database and the output is to go in
citations.tex

You should even be able to import this document into LyX and output as
ASCII ;-)

Hope it works but caveat emptor.

You could run a dvi to ASCII converter (like dvi2tty) after exporting to dvi.
See man dvi2tty for usage. 
The output quality is said to be low, though.

Re: Spacing in List of Tables

[Stephen Buonopane]

  This is one the copyeditor caught. In the list of tables, the table
numbers are left-aligned and there's a small space between the number 
and
the table caption. This works fine until it gets to Chapter 12, Table 
10 and
beyond. With the four digits (and separating period; e.g., 12.10) 
there is
no longer a space between the digits and the title.

Rich,
I think this will take a bit of latex hacking, but there might also be 
some package out there that does this?
The command \listoftables uses a predefined List environment, so you 
need to change \labelwidth that is defined by \listoftables. My first 
try would be to use a \renewcommand. You might also dig around in your 
tex tree a bit and look at the Latex code that is invoked by 
\listoftables.

in ERT. ext is the file extension for the list: toc for the TOC,

E.g. for Preface, you have to write:

Note: If you're using a koma-script class, you can directly use the 
Addchap environment for chapters that should appear without numbers in

Only for information: You don't need the \makeatxxx commands when you 
use them in the preamble, because LyX does this automatically in the 
background.

  But they also recommend adjusting other commands, too, to keep a balanced
look. Is that the purpose of changing subsubsection, too?
Changing the [EMAIL PROTECTED] command is not always necessary, its your 
decision what looks nice and what not.
I changed it because I have subsubsections with long numbers in my 
document (something like 12.13.17).

  I've tried your examples (at the top) with more room on the last
parameter, but it seems to make no difference when I look at the dvi output
in gv.
Play a bit with the parameter values, my examples are optimized for 
another book class and a special font width.
(If nothing helps, try to define the commands with \AtBeginDocument.)

Uwe,
  I have a problem with only two tables in the List of Tables: 12.10 and
12.11. There's no problem in the Table of Contents or List of Figures.

Uwe,
  Please excuse my frustration. Here's what I've learned from my
experimentation:
  1.) With the [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the preamble, the spacing is
drastically altered, but the List of Tables still has 10.10 and 10.11
smashed against the text.
  2.) With the [EMAIL PROTECTED] in an ERT box between the gray
placeholder boxes for List of Figures and List of Tables, the literal
command prints at the end of the List of Figures and the two problem table
numbers have no more spacing.
  Searching through Chapter 2 of TLC2 (and checking the index) I don't see a
way to increase number spacing for only the .lot entries. Is there such a
way? Perhaps I did not have the LaTeX commands properly formatted in the ERT
box and that's why it was read as literal text rather than a command.
Thanks,
Rich

The change of the output of the configure command has been done in
1.3.6cvs and 1.4.0cvs. Is this what you are using? 

If you do have access to cvs, there is some testing that I would like
you to do (I do not have aiksaurus here). Basically, I think we do not

I don't think that the two statements can be connected

Kile is a pure Qt-app so all the magic is handled internally by Qt. LyX is
not a pure Qt app so everything must be translated at the boundary bwtween
the LyX core and the Qt libraries. Sometimes we mess up. Sometimes Qt do.
We have some control over our own mess ups.

Note that I'm not saying who's fault this particular bug is ;-)

  lyx2lyx must trust in some way the input file. It is very difficult to 
distinguish and guard against all the different possibilities. At least 
with regard to older lyx formats. That is one of the main reasons why we 
have been cleaning the file format in 1.4, actually we had more file format 
changes in 1.4 than all the previous versions combined. (!) :-)

Thank you, that was it! Great!
For all interested in how to do this: Get the cyrillic.sty package from your

Than add "\usepackage{cyrillic}" to the LaTeX-Preamble in the format/document

You mean that they are cited in the text, but that there's no "Reference"
section at the end of the document with the cited entries? That's not
easy.

You can do it with a bit of hacking and a script though.

First, gather together all your citations:

$ sed -n -f citation_keys.sed yourfile.lyx | sort -u | \
  sed -f citation_1liner.sed > citation_keys.txt

I attach both sed files.

Then, use this dataset to create yet another sed script and use that to
modify the attached script, bib2bbl.sh.in

$ sed "s/CITATION_DATA/`cat citation_keys.txt`/" bib2latex.sh.in > \
  bib2latex.sh

Finally, run this shell script to generate a latex file of your references.
Something like:

$ sh bib2latex.sh docs/references.bib citations.tex plainnat article

where docs/references.bib is my BibTeX database and the output is to go in
citations.tex

You should even be able to import this document into LyX and output as
ASCII ;-)

Hope it works but caveat emptor.

You could run a dvi to ASCII converter (like dvi2tty) after exporting to dvi.
See man dvi2tty for usage. 
The output quality is said to be low, though.

You could even define a new ASCII(dvi2tty) format and converters in

OK, in 1.3.5, find in config/confgure.ac the bit of code that reads:

AC_ARG_WITH(aiksaurus,
  [  --without-aiksaurus do not use the Aiksaurus library],
  [lyx_use_aiksaurus=$withval])

 AIKSAURUS_LIBS="-lAiksaurus -lbz2"
],,"-lbz2")

Replace the last line with
])

[this means that we think aiksaurus does not need the libbz2 library
to operate]

Then run ./autoconf.sh and the configure as usual. Does it (still)

Re: Spacing in "List of Tables"

[Stephen Buonopane]

  This is one the copyeditor caught. In the list of tables, the table
numbers are left-aligned and there's a small space between the number 
and
the table caption. This works fine until it gets to Chapter 12, Table 
10 and
beyond. With the four digits (and separating period; e.g., 12.10) 
there is
no longer a space between the digits and the title.

Rich,
I think this will take a bit of latex hacking, but there might also be 
some package out there that does this?
The command \listoftables uses a predefined List environment, so you 
need to change \labelwidth that is defined by \listoftables. My first 
try would be to use a \renewcommand. You might also dig around in your 
tex tree a bit and look at the Latex code that is invoked by 
\listoftables.

I want that Preface, and so on, appears in Table of Contents.
I want that Preface ... Introducción no appears in TOC with numbers like 
Chapters.
Use after the chapter names the command
\addcontentsline{ext}{type}{text}
in ERT. "ext" is the file extension for the list: "toc" for the TOC, 
"lof" for the list of figures, and "lot" for the list of tables. "type" 
is the paragraph type, in your case "chapter".
E.g. for Preface, you have to write:

\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\numberline{}Preface}
The commands "\protect\numberline{}" are added to indent the toc entry 
so that it is at the position of normal chapters entries, that have a 
number at the beginning. (look at the attached example)

Note: If you're using a koma-script class, you can directly use the 
"Addchap" environment for chapters that should appear without numbers in 
the toc.

I put them in the preamble, e.g.:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@dottedtocline{2}{1.5em}{2.8em}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@dottedtocline{3}{4.3em}{3.6em}}

Uwe,
  My situation is illustrated at the bottom of page 51 (see example for
10.10). On page 52 the recommeded fix is to use
\makeatletter
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@dottedtocline}{2}{1.5em}{3em}}
\makeatother
  But they also recommend adjusting other commands, too, to keep a balanced
look. Is that the purpose of changing subsubsection, too?
  I've tried your examples (at the top) with more room on the last
parameter, but it seems to make no difference when I look at the dvi output
in gv.
Thanks,
Rich
