 Hi
 
 In the attached file, I would like to do two things:
 
 1) replace the automatic name Bibliography with Literature and
 At the very beginning of the document: 
 \addto\captionsenglish{\renewcommand\bibname{Literature}} You have to do it 
 this way because 
 you are using babel.
 
 2) change the style to Section
 
 To do that, you will need to copy the declaration of \thebibliography from 
 book.cls to your 
 preamble, change it from \newenvironment to \renewenvironment, and change the 
 line that makes 
 it a chapter* to one that makes it a section*.

Thanks Richard

works like a charm.

redefine \includegraphics to include \shadowbox?

2012-09-06 Thread Rainer M Krug 
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi

not strictly LyX, but it will end in a LyX document.

I want to use instead of
\incldegraphics[]{}

\shadowbox\includegraphics[]{}
as the default.

Therefore I thought about redefining \includegraphic:

\renewcommand{\includegraphics}{\shadowbox\includegraphics}

so that each time \includegraphics is called, actually the graphic is included 
in a shadowbox. But
the above does not work:
###
 Missing { inserted.
to be read again
   \do@VerbBox
l.80 \includegraphics
 {0_home_rkrug_Documents_Publications_2012_handbook_Mana...
A left brace was mandatory here, so I've put one in.
You might want to delete and/or insert some corrections
so that I will find a matching right brace soon.
(If you're confused by all this, try typing `I}' now.)
###

Any suggestions how I can redefine \includegraphics ?

Thanks,

Rainer

Re: LyX andTeX Live: How to find and link a new latex version?

2012-09-06 Thread John Kane 
Hello to Rainer and David
Continuing saga

@ David-- yes, of course.  Latex is in /usr/bin not /bin.  Just stupidity on my 
part.

@ Rainer -- looking at my notes I does not look like I ran:  sudo tlmgr path 
remove

Just give it a try this morning and results are
john@john-K53U:~$ sudo tlmgr path remove
[sudo] password for john: 
sudo: tlmgr: command not found

which I suppose is not surprising. 

john@john-K53U:~$ latex --version
pdfTeX 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012/Debian)
kpathsea version 6.1.0

Which looks good.

Now,  any idea if I can install or find tlmgr?  Otherwise how do I install or 
update packages?  

Thanks for all the help and handholding.

Makes sense - as you removed the links o the commands from the path.

 Interestingly enough when  I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see anything

 However much to my surprise LyX is still running happily and  the tex 
 information shows 
 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls so it looks 
 like LyX has found
 something, presumabley ver.2012 since the old path was usr/local/texlive2011.
 
 Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go at 
 installing leadpar.
 Or should I expect it to have installed automatically with ver. 2012?
 
 The worst of all this is that I really don't need leadpar, I just was trying 
 to do a LyX sales
 job on a history graduate student and wanted him to see what some of the more 
 specialized
 packages could do.  Even he does not really need it but now it's got me 
 annoyed that I cannot
 do it.
 
 Also I am likely to need to update some of my packages so I do need to get 
 tlmgr working but
 it's not that urgent.
 
 Anywhat thanks for all the help so far.

If you have installed via synaptic / apt-get / software-centre, then you won't 
have tlmgr
installed (based on debian / ubuntu policies - package management only via

I guess the problem possibly came because you installed tlmgr and used it on

Either don't use tlmgr, or install texlive from their website and not via the

(apt-get, synaptic, software-centre, ...)

Getting table of TODOS into lyxhtml export?

2012-09-06 Thread Rainer M Krug 
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

Hi

I am using the ToDo Notes Environments module and export to LyXHTML, but the 
table of ToDos does
not show (and the actual todo notes are in courier, which is fine, but a 
different colour and in a
box as in the PDF export would be nicer).

Is there any way of getting the table of ToDos into the LyXHTML?

Thanks,

You are not supposed to use it, in fact, if you installed texlive with
appcenter/synaptic, etc.

However:
Notice that you may have tlmgr installed (the default if texlive was
installed directly) and it may not be on the  sudo path (this is an
Ubuntu feature, it has to do with how the shell was compiled. You'll
find a lot of detail if you google for sudo ubuntu PATH). To find
out if this is the case, just type which tlmgr at a prompt. If a
tlmgr is found, you can always run it with sudo by passing the full
path: sudo /path/to/tlmgr path remove
On the other hand, if which tlmgr does not return anything you have
one fewer problem to worry about.

Cheers,

Stefano

As someone who had used Miktex on Windows for years, I also wanted to 
install tlmgr on my ubuntu machines, in order to manage texlive packages.
But I wonder-- wouldn't ubuntu upgrade texlive packages as they get 
updated?  I like the philosophy of installing everything through one 
package manager.

Re: LyX andTeX Live: How to find and link a new latex version?

2012-09-06 Thread John Kane 
Hello to Rainer and David
Continuing saga

@ David-- yes, of course.  Latex is in /usr/bin not /bin.  Just stupidity on my 
part.

@ Rainer -- looking at my notes I does not look like I ran:  sudo tlmgr path 
remove

Just give it a try this morning and results are
john@john-K53U:~$ sudo tlmgr path remove
[sudo] password for john: 
sudo: tlmgr: command not found

which I suppose is not surprising. 

john@john-K53U:~$ latex --version
pdfTeX 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012/Debian)
kpathsea version 6.1.0

Which looks good.

Now,  any idea if I can install or find tlmgr?  Otherwise how do I install or 
update packages?  

Thanks for all the help and handholding.

Makes sense - as you removed the links o the commands from the path.

This is strange - what gives you

 Interestingly enough when  I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see anything 
 called latex
 
 However much to my surprise LyX is still running happily and  the tex 
 information shows 
 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls so it looks 
 like LyX has found
 something, presumabley ver.2012 since the old path was usr/local/texlive2011.
 
 Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go at 
 installing leadpar.
 Or should I expect it to have installed automatically with ver. 2012?
 
 The worst of all this is that I really don't need leadpar, I just was trying 
 to do a LyX sales
 job on a history graduate student and wanted him to see what some of the more 
 specialized
 packages could do.  Even he does not really need it but now it's got me 
 annoyed that I cannot
 do it.
 
 Also I am likely to need to update some of my packages so I do need to get 
 tlmgr working but
 it's not that urgent.
 
 Anywhat thanks for all the help so far.

If you have installed via synaptic / apt-get / software-centre, then you won't 
have tlmgr
installed (based on debian / ubuntu policies - package management only via

I guess the problem possibly came because you installed tlmgr and used it on

Either don't use tlmgr, or install texlive from their website and not via the

Getting table of TODOS into lyxhtml export?

2012-09-06 Thread Rainer M Krug 
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi

I am using the ToDo Notes Environments module and export to LyXHTML, but the 
table of ToDos does
not show (and the actual todo notes are in courier, which is fine, but a 
different colour and in a
box as in the PDF export would be nicer).

Is there any way of getting the table of ToDos into the LyXHTML?

Thanks,

Rainer

You are not supposed to use it, in fact, if you installed texlive with
appcenter/synaptic, etc.

However:
Notice that you may have tlmgr installed (the default if texlive was
installed directly) and it may not be on the  sudo path (this is an
Ubuntu feature, it has to do with how the shell was compiled. You'll
find a lot of detail if you google for sudo ubuntu PATH). To find
out if this is the case, just type which tlmgr at a prompt. If a
tlmgr is found, you can always run it with sudo by passing the full
path: sudo /path/to/tlmgr path remove
On the other hand, if which tlmgr does not return anything you have
one fewer problem to worry about.

Cheers,

Stefano

2012-09-06 Thread UD 
As someone who had used Miktex on Windows for years, I also wanted to 
install tlmgr on my ubuntu machines, in order to manage texlive packages.
But I wonder-- wouldn't ubuntu upgrade texlive packages as they get 
updated?  I like the philosophy of installing everything through one 
package manager.

redefine \includegraphics to include \shadowbox?

Hi

not strictly LyX, but it will end in a LyX document.

I want to use instead of
\incldegraphics[]{}

\shadowbox\includegraphics[]{}
as the default.

Therefore I thought about redefining \includegraphic:

\renewcommand{\includegraphics}{\shadowbox\includegraphics}

so that each time \includegraphics is called, actually the graphic is included 
in a shadowbox. But
the above does not work:
###
 Missing { inserted.

A left brace was mandatory here, so I've put one in.
You might want to delete and/or insert some corrections

(If you're confused by all this, try typing `I}' now.)

Any suggestions how I can redefine \includegraphics ?

Makes sense - as you removed the links o the commands from the path.

This is strange - what gives you

If you have installed via synaptic / apt-get / software-centre, then you won't 
have tlmgr
installed (based on debian / ubuntu policies - package management only via 
package manager.)

I guess the problem possibly came because you installed tlmgr and used it on 
your installation via
apt. This might have led to inconsistencies.

Either don't use tlmgr, or install texlive from their website and not via the 
package manager
(apt-get, synaptic, software-centre, ...)

Getting table of TODOS into lyxhtml export?

2012-09-06 Thread Rainer M Krug 
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi

I am using the "ToDo Notes Environments" module and export to LyXHTML, but the 
table of ToDos does
not show (and the actual todo notes are in courier, which is fine, but a 
different colour and in a
box as in the PDF export would be nicer).

Is there any way of getting the table of ToDos into the LyXHTML?

Thanks,

Rainer

You are not supposed to use it, in fact, if you installed texlive with
appcenter/synaptic, etc.

However:
Notice that you may have tlmgr installed (the default if texlive was
installed directly) and it may not be on the  sudo path (this is an
Ubuntu feature, it has to do with how the shell was compiled. You'll
find a lot of detail if you google for "sudo ubuntu PATH"). To find
out if this is the case, just type "which tlmgr" at a prompt. If a
tlmgr is found, you can always run it with sudo by passing the full
path: "sudo /path/to/tlmgr path remove"
On the other hand, if "which tlmgr" does not return anything you have
one fewer problem to worry about.

Cheers,

Stefano

I am guessing that there is no XHTML-related code in the module. I'll

Re: LyX andTeX Live: How to find and link a new latex version?

2012-09-06 Thread UD 
As someone who had used Miktex on Windows for years, I also wanted to 
install tlmgr on my ubuntu machines, in order to manage texlive packages.
But I wonder-- wouldn't ubuntu upgrade texlive packages as they get 
updated?  I like the philosophy of installing everything through one 
package manager.

Makes sense - as you removed the links o the commands from the path.

Interestingly enough when  I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see anything

/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls so it looks like

something, presumabley ver.2012 since the old path was usr/local/texlive2011.

The worst of all this is that I really don't need leadpar, I just was trying to 
do a LyX

more
specialized packages could do.  Even he does not really need it but now it's 
got me annoyed
that I cannot do it.
Also I am likely to need to update some of my packages so I do need to get 
tlmgr working but
it's not that urgent.
Anywhat thanks for all the help so far.
