Re: Lyx 1.5.1 failed to start on Windows XP
Are you using MikTex and, if so, have you the latest version? If I am not wrong, the problem you mention disappeared with the last version. You may also want to take a look at this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg53308.html Cheers, Nicolás Paul A.

Ignore what follows if you're not using MikTeX. I'm not sure if this is your problem, but there have been installation failures relating to MikTeX's attempts to install packages. During the installation script, LyX looks for a variety of common (?) LaTeX packages. Very few of these packages are actually essential, and as far as I know the essential ones are all part of the base MikTeX installation. When a package is not installed, MikTeX will react in one of three ways, depending on how a particular MikTeX option is set: it may automatically attempt to download and install the package; it may ask for permission to download and install; or it may ignore the missing package. LyX will interpret the third option as the package not being installed, which is correct and causes no problem. The difficulty occurs with the first option (automatic download), or possibly with the second option if permission to download is granted. If the selected MikTeX repository is offline or possibly out of synch, or if the user's Internet connection is slow (or worse yet turned off), the download can fail (or take forever), and the installation script in turn fails. It may also fail if MikTeX is set to install from a local disk drive and the drive is unready (empty CD drive, for instance). If this is the problem, the resolution is straightforward. Run MikTeX's Settings application, go to the package installation section of the general tab, and select 'no' for installation on the fly. Then run the LyX configuration script again. If it runs successfully and LyX starts, feel free to change the MikTeX setting back to 'yes' or 'ask me'. /Paul

spell-checking in French with LyX 1.5.1
There seems to be a problem with spell-checking in French in LyX 1.5.1. Apparently, the spell checker does not recognize accented characters. More precisely, words with accented letters are systematically declared as erroneous. I don't have this problem with LyX 1.4.5.1 I'm working with MacOS X Gilles Horowitz

I have ideas, but nto time to code it up.
First, look around and see if someone have done this already.
If not:
1. decide on how you number those verses. An enumeration
seems to fit better than modified subsection, but use whatever you like.
That makes sense.
2. Set up the footnote counter to be reset when the enumeration/subsection
counter increments.
I found the footmisc package perpage option, the footnpag package and
the perpage packages which can give me some ideas. But that seems to
advanced as it has to keep track of page numbering.
So I tried:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hm - I thought the enumeration counters were
enumi, enumii, enumiii, for the various levels.
But got:
You can't use '\spacefactor' in vertical mode.
LaTeX Error: Missing \begin{document}
I saw some examples for lyx in preamble but got same error when I tried:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
or
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Any ideas on how to do this?
When you use [EMAIL PROTECTED], make sure it is between
\makeatletter and \makeatother. This because
the @-sign is normally not allowed in commands, and will
cause syntax errors.
Have a look at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=addtoreset
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=running-nos
3. print the enum/subsec counter along with the footnote
counter
to get 1b, 3a, ...
That seems easy like:
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\thesection.\alph{footnote}}
But that makes my footnote in the text like 1.0.a and the footnote at
bottom like 1.0.a (the section is 1. without any 0..
This happened because \thesection already have a similiar
definition - the subsection counter is printed along with
it by a definition very similiar to yours.
Instead, consider something like:
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\arabic{section}\alph{footnote}}
So I tried adding:
\renewcommand{\thefootnotemark}{\alph{footnote}}
But that change both to just a.
Having the footnote mark in text and the footnote mark
at the page bottom different could be tricky.
If these are provided by the same command, then you probably
need to redefine it so that it knows whether it is issued from
inside the \footnote command or not.

Again the great old aspell problem
Dear list, I am sorry, but I read every topic in the mailinglist about the well known aspell problem (still with LyX 1.5.1) under windows. I do not get the reason why this problem exists: Simply aspell does never find a dictionary although it is installed correctly. And correctly means: for every user of the computer, since I chose the same kind of installation with LyX. Therefore the suggested solution in the mailinglists do not succeed, I must admit. Under Linux there is not even a shadow of this problem. Under Windows -- of course -- it kills you half a day. Where does LyX *search* for the dicts? It is not said anywhere in the documentation, as far as I found out. It seems to search for files with the extension *.pws, but the dicts under Windows have the extension *.rws. To help newbies to install LyX under Windows there should be a hint in the installer that you have to download the dictionary from the web. When it is called LyX bundle, you do not expect that it is *not* the whole thing. Since there is no hint from which address the download will be taken, ther the danger of virusses occur (I made the bad experience with a server in Germany where I fetched one dict). Therefore there should be a possibility to installe aspell and the dicts manually -- and it is very easy to get a success. But LyX does not find anything. The problem is familiar since a long time, I am afraid. More clear information about the paths which are searched by LyX would be a good idea. Or am I wrong? If you have time to give me any hint for the solution, although it is well known, would be a great thing.

Great Aspell Problem Windows XP (some other points)
Hi list, as a supplement of the first mail (Installing Aspell and german dictionary separately after installing the bundle of LyX 1.5.1. for Windows XP): It *must* be a problem with LyXs call of aspell. I tried everything, I can think of. Applying the correct path prefix, copying into th bin-directory of lyx (aspell is located in C:\Programs\Aspell), loading the pws-Dictionary (which is *not* in the dict-subdirectory of aspell; hmmm). Aspell works perfect under on the DOS-Console (if the file is in the Aspell-Directory), but with LyX there is only a great nothing: cannot find directory. Bang. I cannot find the slightest hint of the external call of aspell in any of the great manuals. Every external command of a converter can be checked. But with aspell? Nothing! I give up now! Under Linux it works very fine without any problems. But Windows? It is a pity! Regards Heiko -- Heiko Schroeder Praha, Ceska Republica http://home.foni.net/~heikos http://www.od.shuttle.de/evb-1
