But yes, it looks like that is somewhat out of date. I don't know how well it would work with the current file format. Your best option may be to export the file to some more common format, and use a grammar checker on that. E.g., you can export to LaTeX and then use pandoc to convert to Word or whatever. Or you can export to XHMTL, and then open that in Libre Office. Riki -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
Grammar Checking -- noob help!
I'm writing what is essentially going to be a small text in Physics with a lot of high end Mathematics, so a good Science grammar checker would be a nice idea. I found the LyX wiki and the lyx-cg system. Are there other options? I'm also looking at Grammarly but I'm not sure it can handle the kind of language help I might need. Let's say I go with the lyx-cg idea. (Which is why I'm posting this here. :) ) I have a few questions. 1) Is lyx-cg up to date? I'm noticing that the Github files are as much as 8 years old. 2) If I have to buy something I'd prefer to buy it outright. langaugetool charges per month. Is there any way around this? 3) But the main problem is the actual lyx-cg file. I have it on Github, but what do I do with it? I was expecting to download a file and extract it. But it's giving me a list of files with their codes, not something I can download? Sorry, I'm a bit of a noob. I could use a hand. Thanks! -Dan -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

I think we've got enough information. I guess it's not the Qt version then, because Wolfgang can reproduce with 5.15.2 and kzstatis cannot reproduce with 5.15.2. It's also not a macOS-specific issue since Wolfgang is on Linux. I'll move discussion to the trac ticket now. Thanks for your help!
