It seems to be a severe problem for windows users, so I'd say they should be used as soon as possible. I can confirm that with the latest patch (r14285) that convert all \t to spaces, bibtex works under windows. Lars, are you interested in merging 14285, 272, 270, 265, 261, 250, 238, 223

I think you have left out easy copy/paste and muti-window from SWP. And if SWP has not fixed this problem, the undo feature of SWP sucks. Bo

it seems appropriate for LyX to develop an import feature in order to gain their support. They already like Linux' stability. But need this one enhancement to provide sufficient motivation for the switch. SWP does *not* use standard latex. They *have to* 1. save to portable latex (does not
