Thanks for the confirmation.  Though, I think that's a *very* weird word to
accept (by default).  With respect to it missing from the Scrabble
dictionary, I only have this to offer: https://youtu.be/Iyhk8stIJok?t=48s.

“baed” is accepted as a word in my OS X as well (in LyX as well as other 
programs)
According to https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/baed it is the "simple past tense 
and past participle of ba”
(but it does not show up in the official scrabble dictionary….oh well)

Another option, which we do sometimes use, is to change the color, as a
signal that something is weird. We do this, for example, with 'resumed'
enumerations, where the numbering ends up being wrong. So, e.g., we
could make the captialized section heading blue.

Possible but would involve complicated hard-coding of this conversion,
and it would be very different from what else we do.

The spell checkers are all external programs. I don't know what the
default is on OSX.

Is it possible you accidentally told the spell checker to accept this word?

Testing of the 2.2.x Branch (esp Slowness)

2017-01-06 Thread Richard Heck
We (specifically, Jean-Marc Lasgouttes) have recently made some changes
to the text rendering algorithms in LyX. We would appreciate it if those
who are able could compile and use the 2.2.x branch of the git
repository, so that these changes can receive sufficient testing before
we schedule the release of LyX 2.2.3.

For those on Linux, this should not be terribly difficult. You will need
to install some headers libraries, e.g., zlib-devel and especially
qt-devel (naming may vary on various distros), as well as the usual
compilation tools (automake, make, gcc). You will also need to install
git to be able to check out the repo. But the compilation procedure is
otherwise fairly straightforward.

Do this, from whatever directory you choose (in which you have write
privileges):

> git clone git://git.lyx.org/lyx/
> cd lyx
> git checkout 2.2.x

You have now checked out the 2.2.x branch, which is what will become
2.2.3. Have a look, if you wish, at the INSTALL file for some
information about what else you may need to do. Compiling is then the
usual three-step:

> ./autogen.sh
> ./configure --enable-build-type=rel

This flag gives you a "release version" rather than a "development
version", which is what 2.2.3 would actually be.

> ./configure --help

if you want more information on other options. It is, for example,
possible to install LyX to a location other than the default, which is
/usr/local/, and which will normally require root privileges.

You may find that configuation fails. This will usually be due to your
not having all the dependencies installed. The configuation script is
usually pretty good at telling you what you need. If you have problems,
then please respond to this email, and we'll help.

> make
> sudo make install

You can add an option "-j N" to the first command make to speed things
up. This tells make to compile N files simultaneously. Roughly speaking,
you can set N to the number of cores you have (or even a few more).

Joel,

'baed' did appear in the Urban Dictionary a few years ago. It was explained
as the mis-pronunication of the word 'bad'. Surprised that it seems be

LyX 2.2.2 & reconfigure -- MikTeX problems?

2017-01-06 Thread Bernt Lie
Hi



I recently installed LyX 2.2.2 on my brand new Dell workstation, and use 
Windows 10 Pro (it was set up with Win 10 Enterprise when I installed LyX 
2.2.2, but I have just "downgraded" it to Pro to have faster updates...)



When I installed LyX 2.2.2, there was some message (error message?) related to 
MikTeX. I just installed Andrew Parsloe's files for numbering theorems etc. 
after chapter number, and then try to reconfigure LyX.



This is what happens:



1.   First, the following message pops up:

[cid:image003.jpg@01D26810.A2641880]

2.   When I click OK, the response is as follows:

[cid:image002.png@01D26810.A261A780]



Does this mean that I have a problem? Should I un-install and re-install LyX? 
Should I re-install v. 2.2.2 (wasn’t there some problems with 2.2.2?), or 
install v. 2.2.1?



Thanks,

Bernt
